The Albuquerque Journal admits to forums.

The Albuquerque Journal whose every obligation it is,
to fully inform voters in anticipation of very important elections,

has admitted that there will be public forums
before the upcoming school board elections,

and nothing else.



Submitted as evidence of journalistic malpractice.

Do you have any pull with he Women's League o Voters? They did and awesome job of covering the issues in their publications for the past presidential election.

If they have people that put together candidate profiles, do some rudimentary vetting for voting records and what not, public record, non-invasive, things that elected officials expect and are legal to get, would they consider making something like that for this election, I wonder?

My name is not welcome among the league leadership.

I was standing at the side of the room with a poster that suggested that they were avoiding the issue of role modeling.

I was asked by a LoWV volunteer, if I would please move to a place where "the candidates can't see you".

I said no.
