Cornelia Lange for NM Senate

Just to be clear, folks, this is a training page for people I advise who are using Facebook in their campaigns. Due to the full time work I am doing for my mother, who is ill in Colorado, I will not be running for NM State Senate this fall in 2016.

Thank-you everyone for your support. I just called Senator William Payne and conceded. Even with only 20 precincts of 69 in, with the early and absentee votes you can see that I will loose.
Senator Payne was very gracious. I thanked him for running a clean campaign. And he said that winning is not worth it if one has to play "dirty" politics. Senator Payne said that his office was my office and that he looked forward to seeing me in Santa Fe. I was very touched. Later, I spoke with Senator Jerry Ortiz y Pino who said that I ran a strong race. So again, thank-you everyone for your support and encouragement.

For those of you who have voted early, thank-you!
I have been walking the precincts and many still have yet to vote.
Please make one last check to make sure that your frineds and family have voted. If they have not, please get them to the polls.

Character does matter in children being able to succeed over the constraints of poverty. And the skills that matter are:perseverance, curiosity, conscientiousness, optimism, and self-control.
