Been to Portalis. This is a very small population.

A few miles from the Texas state line. Conservative Lubbock is a lot closer than Albuquerque or Santa Fe.

{ was born in Portales 72 1/2 years ago at 10:10 am By 10:30 I was enrolled in the Baptist Cradle Roll. My grandparents were pioneer's in Roosevelt County. It has always been a very conservative, Bible believing, God fearing place to live. I salute these clerks, and am reminded where I came from, Praise God that at least officials in one county have stood up for what is right. This is a small college/farming town. It will be difficult for them to find a new job.
