Setting the Record Straight:
CANDIDATES: We understand candidates are in their races to win. However, NMBC, along with many voters, is saddened by the fact that some candidates feel it is necessary to try and destroy their opponents personally and/or professionally with statements that are misleading, untruthful, or unverifiable in order to win an election.
The NMBC does not care who you are, what position you are seeking, or the party in which you are registered. PLEASE tell the truth or we will tell it for you!
VOTERS: If you receive mail or see an ad that you know to be untrue or you question its validity, please send it to us. If there is a problem, we will put out the TRUTH.
