On newsstands this week…
The birds are chirping, flowers are blooming and politicians are campaigning. Yes, it’s already that time of year: Primary election season.
But don’t fret, dear politically engaged reader, we’ve got you covered.
This week’s election guide has the basics, such as how to vote and who’s running.
We also previewed a few races to help folks stay informed and up to date. A Democratic incumbent on the Westside, for example, is facing a challenger who’s looking to shake things up. Another Democrat who represents a sizable chunk of the North Valley and a part of Downtown is also facing an opponent from his party.
Rounding out our election coverage is an interesting race to fill the shoes of a longtime state representative in a southeast Albuquerque district.
P.S. We’ve got a cool story about truck drivers and weed. Also, don’t forget to check our events page!

Welcome our new advertiser, Gyro’s!
If we don’t write it, who will?
Big national news outlets might provide play-by-play drama of the latest Trump trial… but they’re not taking you inside Don Schrader’s living room or previewing the next big thing at El Rey or interviewing the local artist excited to launch their first gallery show.
That type of local reporting only comes from local journalists with the freedom to look for stories no one else is telling.
