After she narrowly won election, however, Torres Small quickly embraced the Democrats’ gun control agenda, voting in favor of universal background checks while still presenting herself as a “gun owner and hunter” in interactions with residents. The Las Cruces Sun-News highlighted one exchange back in 2019.
Asked for her preferred action on gun regulations, on a night falling about a month after the Aug. 3 mass shooting in nearby El Paso, Torres Small said, “The second amendment right (to bear arms) comes with its responsibilities, and that’s why I voted for comprehensive background checks. Because I think, like most gun owners do, that we have to act responsibly and make sure we’re keeping our communities safe.”
Reminding the audience that she was a gun-owner and hunter, Torres Small said that she reviews gun control legislation asking “the questions a gun owner would ask.”
Well, here’s one question a gun owner would ask: why on earth would anyone claiming to be a Second Amendment supporter hire a veteran of Michael Bloomberg’s Everytown for Gun Safety to be her campaign manager?

Typical politician who says anything to get votes.
Typical gullible people will to believe anything and give their votes.
A Democrat. And people actually believed her?!
Well let's hope they do and loudly.
The mess we’re in can no longer be resolved politically.
Voters now need to ask politicians, “How exactly are you going to protect the 2nd Amendment?”
NM Ping
I like to point out that anyone who claims to be a conservative shouldn’t be anywhere near the Democrat party.
In fact, anyone who loves this country should denounce the democrats as anti-american. All democrats, even the little people in flyover land.
I lived in Western NM for many years and traveled Southern NM and AZ on business.
The Dems in NM (away from cities) are hunters and gun owners. The Hispanics in NM are not for confiscating guns nor injuring the 2nd Amendment.
BUT, money talks to POLs, even in their sleep. Between Bloomberg and Soros, there is a lot of pressure on POLs.
Expose ALL the ComDem POLs
Remember in November
Vote em ALL Out !!
Recall?
Asking a pollie how heeshee will protect the Second Amendment is pointless.
Creepy Joe has already bellowed, “None of my gun safety proposals will violate the Second Amendment!!”
Including confiscation of AR-15’s. Sure, Joe.
That’s when you ask sleepy Joe if he will support background checks.
This is why the NRA should never endorse a ‘rat. They are always posers when it comes to the 2nd amendment.
Grab your pitchforks and torches!
Guillotine! Guillotine!!
LS said she may be in trouble. Maybe a pickup.

I have seen her pro gun campaign ads twice. She is a typical Commie who relies on the ignorance and stupidity of most of her constituents to fall for her deceptive BS.
Sadly, as you say, most constituents are, at the very least, ignorant. And it ain’t just NM. If it sounds good for their circumstance (false promises/lies) they go with it. Lots of in in nevaDUH these days. Butt, Vegas pretty much rules the rest of the state with Reno getting nearly as bad. Just less population.
