Description | Like many politicians, Republican congressional candidate Eddy Aragon has a grievance against the powers that be.
He says an election is being manipulated and sullied, possibly to his detriment. That claim is common enough.
What's unusual is the target of Aragon's complaint. He is raging against people who are his allies — at least on paper.
He says the New Mexico Republican Party has broken federal law in structuring a nominating election for the vacant seat in the 1st Congressional District.
Aragon is one of the candidates. He says four other Republicans have been improperly included on the ballot.
"Only I and Elisa Martinez are legally registered with the Federal Election Commission," Aragon said. "All four other so-called candidates either have never registered with the FEC or registered too late after declaring. They are not legal candidates, and they should not be on the ballot." |
