New Mexico Holds June Primary Seal of Inconsequence
New Mexico voters face a June presidential primary with little clout as the national contest moves toward a done deal. Democrats already back President Obama for November while Republicans await June results to allocate 23 delegates. The state’s historical June timing diminishes influence in the race and keeps NM as a potential bellwether only in November.

Doonesbury Question on Torn Meniscus in a Healthy Knee
A 72 year old with bilateral mild to moderate osteoarthritis and a torn meniscus in the right knee asks how to treat the meniscus in the knee that feels fine. The doctor’s MRI findings guide options, including activity modification, physical therapy, and possible surgical considerations.
