NM gubernatorial candidates offer no budget solution
New Mexico faces a $260 million budget shortfall for next year with no clear plan from candidates Susana Martinez and Diane Denish. Both pledge no tax increases and no cuts to schools or Medicaid, while proposing audits, agency consolidations, reduced car fleets, travel cuts, and closing tax loopholes. The debate notes possible savings from cutting 100 political appointees but skeptics doubt such gains given existing staff reductions and vacancies.
