Last week, New Mexicans across the district from Belen to Bernalillo, from Estancia to the East Mountains, and, from the Northeast Heights to the South Valley rose up, went to the polls and cast their ballot to change Washington.

To those of you who supported me, I'm humbled by your support and on behalf of my family and my campaign staff, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for everything that you've done to make this victory possible. This campaign was never about me -… Continue

I come to Duke City Fix often despite my busy schedule because I believe it's important to participate in this community. And, I will continue to participate even if you give me the honor of serving in Congress. I know that direct political appeals are sometimes frowned upon in this community, but I wanted to share the following note I just sent to my supporters because this is one of the… Continue

My Ten Favorite Things About Albuquerque

Posted on May 19, 2008 at 1:00pm 16 Comments 0 Likes

Campaigning for Congress has taken me all across Albuquerque and the rest of New Mexico’s First District. I’ve met some great, some interesting and some eccentric people along the way. And, I’ve gained an even deeper appreciation for the place that we all call home.

After some thought, I’ve put together a list of my ten favorite things about Albuquerque – and, I’d love to get your thoughts in the comments. So, without further ado (Hat Tip to Kelly for the correction!)…

No dog, unfortunately. The kids will have to enjoy the fish, for now. We're trying not to complicate life too much further and make it easy for the boys to visit me in DC. Imagine all the museums and places they'll be able to visit. What a great place for kids. Our 5 year old has an inquisitive minds - perfect for exploring space and history museums.

I look forward to working with all of you in this new capacity. Duke City Fix readers: you've added very thoughtful feedback to the political discussion and election. Thank you!

At 3:13pm on November 5, 2008, The Bindi Queen said…: Martin, I am so dang happy and grateful that you are now my Representative in Washington. And wierdly envious that you get to be part of the Obama years (weird because I have no desire to be a politician).

And for the record - you are too reasonable, too mainstream, too co-operative and just plain not extreme enough to be an Earth First!er. I should know, I was one long after that great American partiot and hero Dave Foreman left EF! I thought of charging Darren White with the defamation of Earth First!'s character but decided that it had too many risks of backfiring. I'm so glad that it wasn't needed.

Congratulations!
