Bill to allow Independents vote in state primary dies
In Santa Fe on March 27 the House killed a bill to let Independents vote in primaries with no record vote. The measure, by Rep. Montgomery and others, failed after an unfavorable committee report and no discussion. The House also nixed five percent preference for NM produced lumber coal livestock road oil purchases, while NM agricultural products kept its preference. Senate action aimed at exempting municipal utilities from the administration utility law drew debate. The 42nd day saw highway and pharmacy bills prominent as pensions for state penitentiary and related facilities workers were sent from Senate to House.
