SANTA FE, N.M. – New Mexico’s newly elected Gov. Susana Martinez has come out swinging with a budget proposal that would cut spending and close the budget deficit without raising taxes or making cuts to classroom spending or health care for New Mexico’s most vulnerable.
Martinez also stated one of her first priorities is to revoke driver licenses issued to illegal aliens, pointing out since Arizona passed SB 1070, illegal aliens have been pouring in to New Mexico, which does not require proof of citizenship to obtain licenses.

She won with 53% of the vote. It wasn't even close.

They will play the Palin card by somehow connecting her to the discredited Sarah Palin and thereby trashing both.
The Palin card has been shown to be a more powerful trump than the Race Card when played by all the propagandists at once
You GO, Susana...GO GIRL!
“Martinez also stated one of her first priorities is to revoke driver licenses issued to illegal aliens”
I love it.
Take that, Janet Incompetano, Loretta Sanchez, and the rest of you leftist swine!
WOO HOO!
I like this Governor Lady more every day!

The Democrats hold both houses of the legislature and it will be hard to repeal the current driver's license law. One possibility is a bill that would allow a driving permit (similar to a learners permit) that would not pass as a means of identification, though in reality I imagine such a permit would end up being a defacto identification anyway.
I am starting to suspect that we are in the middle of a feminist backlash.
Finally true salt of the earth women are stepping forward to claim their role.
Wow, a new GOP star! Where is the national media?
Will they dare try to destroy her?
