UNM withholds on-campus 3 UNM faculty dorms coronavirus data, named top citing privacy concerns 100 inspiring Hispanic/Latinx scientists By Spencer Butler & Bella Davis @SpencerButler48 @bladvs
Mirroring many other universities across the country in lack of transparency, the University of New Mexico is refusing to disclose how many students living in on-campus housing have tested positive for COVID-19. Responding to a question from the Daily Lobo about which dorms have had outbreaks and how many students who live on campus have tested positive, Sarah Scott, a spokesperson for UNM Institutional Support Services which UNM Residence Life and Student Housing falls under, said the University will not release those details “to protect student privacy.” Melanie Majors, the executive director of the New Mexico Foundation for Open Government, said that universities nationwide are abusing federal privacy laws as an excuse to not disclose coronavirus data. “Schools incorrectly are citing federal privacy laws that are shrouding what students and faculty need to know about the virus on their campuses,” Majors said. The privacy laws universities are citing are the Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) and the Health Insurance Portability and
Accountability Act (HIPAA). But Majors said these laws don’t apply to overall coronavirus campus data, like how many cases there are among students who live on campus. Responding to a follow-up from the Daily Lobo, Scott said she was waiting to hear back from several people who might be able to talk about the University’s decision, adding that she wasn’t involved in the decision-making process. As of Sunday, Oct. 11, the UNM dashboard reported 62 positive cases among students, faculty and staff at UNM’s main and branch campuses, with 14 of those reported in the last two weeks. “UNM has put into place many measures for the safety of our campus community during the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic,” Scott said. “Students, faculty and staff receive daily emails to report whether they have any symptoms of the disease and whether or not they are intending to come to campus.” There are 144 beds available in the Student Residence Center for students who test positive and have to isolate. Students with meal plans can have their food delivered to their door in a non-contact method. If a student does not have a meal plan, a friend or service can deliver food to them, as long as it’s in a contactless manner. UNM’s COVID FAQ website states that if a student thinks that they have
contracted COVID-19, they should call Student Health and Counseling for an initial screening. If additional screening is needed, the individual schedules an appointment at the outdoor testing center at the C parking lot, which is not open to the public. Individuals who come onto UNM’s campus and display any symptoms related to COVID-19 are required to self-report and may be asked to do additional tests. “UNM is also tracking information on members of our community that test positive for COVID-19, either through services at UNM or self-reported, and are fully cooperating with the state’s contact tracing efforts,” Scott said. UNM has a COVID-19 dashboard that is used to track the number of students, faculty and staff who have tested positive either through UNM-sponsored testing or through self-reporting of results of testing administered elsewhere, meaning that there may be more cases the University is unaware of.

At a virtual town hall attended by over 150 people, University of New Mexico graduate student workers discussed how the administration has continuously ignored their concerns related to pay and working conditions. Now, they’re organizing a union. “This is a historical moment for us to be organizing and unionizing during a pandemic,” United Graduate Workers of UNM organizer and Chicana/o Studies PhD candidate Natalia Toscano said. “The fact is that we’re standing up to ensure that all workers have a voice at the table and that we’re getting all of the benefits and pay and resources that ensure we live full and dignified lives.”

Graduate students and faculty stage a walkout in May 2019, demanding better wages.
In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, Cell Mentor, a sciencecentered publication, released “100 inspiring Hispanic/Latinx scientists in America,” a blog post showcasing influential Hispanic/Latinx scientists around the nation, which included three University of New Mexico faculty members. The list includes Dr. Margaret Werner-Washburne , Dr. C. Fernando Valenzuela and Dr. Gabriel López along with UNM alumni Anita Quintana, Pamela Padilla and Jacqueline De Lora. “The goal of our list was to highlight the accomplishments of inspiring Hispanic/Latinx scientists, to bring awareness of the exceptional scientists within our community,” Christina Termini,
the author of the list, said. Termini said these scientists were selected based on nominations as well as evaluations from a group of selected scientists. Qualifications were “based upon scientific achievements, mentoring/ educational excellence and most importantly, demonstration of commitment to advancing trainees from diverse backgrounds.” Valenzuela, a professor in the department of neuroscience, said one of his most important goals is to continue training the next generation of doctors around New Mexico, where there is a shortage of physicians in rural areas. As an immigrant from Latin America, Valenzuela often felt like an outsider in his field. This created imposter syndrome, which is internalized self-doubt. Valenzuela said his experience with

One of the main topics of discussion at the town hall was pay. The Massachusetts Institute of Technology calculated the living wage in Albuquerque for a single adult with no children to be $23,213 a year. UNM’s minimum teaching and graduate assistant stipend is a mere 61% of that living wage. “You might hear in the following months that UNM doesn’t have the money to be able to afford a decent living wage and (the) protections that we’re asking for, especially since COVID,” linguistics PhD candidate Lindsay Morrone said. “But looking into UNM’s finances a little bit more, we’re going to see that’s not actually the case.” Tuition was raised this semester, and there were enrollment increases in some key categories. This year’s entering freshman class of 2,788 students is an increase of 7.6% from last year. Morrone also pointed out that

1 UNM Athletics and the UNM Police Department have both received budget increases over the past few years. Several students aired their grievances in the virtual town hall about how UNMPD “makes students unsafe” and “overpolices” people on campus. Other graduate student workers talked about experiencing harassment and discrimination and feeling uncared for by UNM. “Since I began my career in STEM, I have faced both racism and sexism,” Annie Montes, a Latina graduate student in the biology department, said. “When I began graduate school, I realized that in addition to these issues, I would have to deal with unfair pay, menial health benefits and a broken system that doesn’t appear to care about my best interests.” Jens Van Gysel, a linguistics PhD candidate, said that the graduate student population has recently tried without success to get the administration to listen to them. Early on in the
pandemic, a petition demanding certain protections for graduate student workers gained over 1,000 signatures but went largely ignored. “Grad workers have been living in financial insecurity for long enough, and we really can’t go one more semester like this,” Vans Gysel said. “We don’t want to fight against the University. All we’re asking is a say in how the University’s money — which we generate a lot of — is being spent and what the conditions are under which we have to do our work.” Axel Gonzalez, an American Studies PhD candidate, spoke about the process behind forming a union. Once a majority of graduate student workers sign a support card, they can petition the Public Employee Labor Relations Board (PELRB) for recognition of their union. When asked by the Daily Lobo if graduate workers are currently recognized as public employees, PELRB executive director Thom-
had an influence in his career and connected him with biology and technology. “My work has been primarily in bioengineering of materials and devices to address environmental and medical problems, especially those that disproportionately affect communities of color,” López said. “In this sense, I see a direct link with my cultural identity and the technical focus of my work.” In regards to empowerment through cultural identity in his field, López said. “My own identity as Indian/Mexican/Spanish made me comfortable and proud within the collective Chicano identity. The presence of many extremely hard working folks and intellectuals in my life from early in life instilled into me that my culture did not lack in talent, nor drive. I feel this is a significant source of empowerment when dealing with the dominant ma-
jorities in academia.” Because López grew up during the Chicano advocacy for human, property and environmental rights era, his heritage has influenced his views in his life. “(Hispanic Heritage Month) has never meant much to me. I grew up understanding that the word Hispanic was a catch-all phrase implemented by the U.S. government to characterize an incredibly vast diversity of citizens,” López said. “Having said this, reflecting a bit, for me I guess it is nice that (Latinos/Latinas) are recognized as an important part of the U.S. citizenry.” López said his work has particularly impacted students from underrepresented groups in sciences and engineering. Werner-Washburne, a regents professor emerita in biology, said her work at UNM is also centered around utilizing a network for her students. She created stemboomerang.org specifically to help former students that have moved out of state to find their way back to New Mexico. “When I came to UNM, I didn’t come for the faculty, and I didn’t come for the school. When I saw the students, I just went, ‘I have to be here,’” WernerWashburne said. “It was really the students, and I was always glad through my whole career that that was the reason I went to UNM.” Valenzuela said UNM was an obvious choice as a place to teach due to its diversity, strong support for students and good research programs. “It was definitely a fantastic place for (my wife and I) to come and work at, so we really didn’t have to think twice before choosing to come here,” Valenzuela said. López said his work in research is hand-in-hand with students as well as professional peers. “An important impact has been in teaching these students how research addressing important societal problems is done, how it is disseminated and how STEM can be a fulfilling career choice,” López said. López’s advice to UNM stu-
as Griego said, “This is an open question that has not yet been addressed by this board. It would not be appropriate for me to comment on an issue that may come before us for adjudication.” Organizers at the town hall insisted that they are indeed recognized as employees, and they seem to fit into the category under the state’s Public Employee Bargaining Act (PEBA) definition. “Because we as graduate workers perform work and labor at the direction of the University of New Mexico in return for wages, we are entitled to protection under the PEBA,” organizer Toscano told the Daily Lobo. “In alignment with graduate employees all over the country, we have decided to exercise these rights in order to have a stronger voice and say over our conditions as workers at the University.” After being recognized by the PELRB, the University would be
legally required to recognize the union, at which point a collective bargaining agreement would be negotiated. Typical contract provisions for unions include better pay and medical benefits, restrictions on workloads, guaranteed paid leave and protections against discrimination and harassment. Graduate worker unions have made some hard-fought gains in recent months, as the Washington Post reported. Unions at eight private universities now have collective bargaining agreements, and contracts have also been approved at public universities like Oregon State University.

imposter syndrome is something that allows him to establish better connections with his trainees. Valenzuela stressed the impact of his cultural identities on his personal life. “(My cultural identity has) been very important. I come from a troubled part of the world. When I was going to medical school in Columbia, it was in the peak of the war with drugs … So I lived through all of those nightmares that you see on Netflix and TV shows,” Valenzuela said. “That taught me how much it’s important to stay positive and always remember it’s possible to achieve your goals, even in the most difficult circumstances like we’re going through right now.” López, a professor of chemical and biological engineering and a vice president of research, said his Indian/Mexican/Spanish background, as well as rural past,

dents in STEM, especially those who identify as Hispanic/Latinx, was to “work hard, but with appropriate personal priorities: Do your best to follow the tried and true scientific/engineering method, work at writing well, practice your presentation to feel satisfaction in your performance and finally, take pride in the tremendous accomplishments of your cultural siblings both in and outside of STEM.” Valenzuela encouraged students to be persistent and not give up. Valenzuela said students studying STEM shouldn’t “let anyone discourage you from achieving your goals. Always look for support and mentors, role models that can show you how things could be done. And be connected with your community. If you are a Hispanic/Latinx
student, take advantage of the wonderful resources that UNM offers, El Centro de La Raza for example.” Werner-Washburne explained four principles she cultivated for her mentoring program that could help STEM students, which included understanding what makes you happy, looking for positives, embracing yourself and expressing gratitude. “If you’re doing that you’ll be happy, because you’re on a path that feels natural to you. As a result, you will be more creative and the world desperately needs all of you guys,” Werner-Washburne said. Jasmine Casillas is a freelance reporter at the Daily Lobo.

Wehan captures first playoff victory for New Mexico United By Andrew Gunn @agunnwrites One more, for the road. That has been the mantra for New Mexico United since March, when the coronavirus pandemic mandated a four-month hiatus of play and altered the trajectory of a year that eventually manifested as a sensational season devoid of home matches. The mantra will see at least one more recitation in 2020 after New Mexico — via a superb Chris Wehan goal in extra time — defeated San Antonio FC 1-0 on Saturday night at Toyota Field in Texas. Wehan played the role of the Greek hero in the club’s first postseason victory, commanding play and directing Troy Lesesne’s men from midfield with an incendiary aggressiveness that secured the first playoff triumph in United’s cursory existence. Patience was most certainly a virtue for head coach and technical director Lesesne’s side on an evening where the heat index mandated hydration breaks on either side of the half. Measured, precise communication in the midfield — particularly in the second half between Wehan and Amanda Moreno — imbued the stifling Texas atmosphere with a certain, unlikely freedom of movement afforded to the visitors. The match’s lone goal in the first 15 minutes of extra time, corralled by Wehan from a cross before the left-footed finish in the box that would send United on, was a thing of technical beauty. While the clubs’ head-to-head history is brief — with only two previous meetings between the young teams — early fouls from either side of the pitch lent the match a near-immediate aura of playoff physicality and animosity. Poor execution kept the scoreboard untouched before the half: United suffered from passes deficient in accuracy, while San Antonio’s attempts to stretch the field and bypass United midfielders were stymied with regularity. New Mexico nearly had a breakthrough in the 12th minute after displaying more creativity through the Moreno connection, but several waves of pressure
were cut short with captain Josh Suggs missed a sparkling chance that went well wide of the post. Moreno — who showed flashes of offensive inventiveness and a glut of pace during a first year with United that earned him 6 goals, 4 assists and the club’s MVP award — tested San Antonio’s midfield with several brilliant individual plays on the ball in the first half highlighted by a bicycle kick attempt at the 39th minute that failed to connect. San Antonio’s Jordan Perruzza very nearly had a glancing header serve as the opening goal following a 44th minute corner kick, but New Mexico goalkeeper Cody Mizell made an astounding save from point-blank range to send the match into the interval without a goal registered. The scoreless second-half resumption at first looked to present an opener for San Antonio, but defender Liam Doyle’s set piece header past Mizell was immediately called off when Doyle was called for a foul after ascending the shoulders of United defender Austin Yearwood. San Antonio simply ran out of time in the end, as three minutes of stoppage time saw the desperation of the home club come up empty without a meaningful look on goal. United came into the match after the most razor-thin of margins at the top of Group C rewarded New Mexico with a second seed and a date with high-flying San Antonio. Third overall in the Western Conference with 33 points during the pandemic-shortened regular season, first-year head coach Alen Mercina’s side had a remarkable undefeated stretch to open the 2020 calendar, not conceding defeat until the September sun set toward the end of a shining 10-3-3 campaign. United is now 2-1-0 all-time against San Antonio, with both previous visits coming during the club’s inaugural 2019 season — New Mexico blanked the Texas team 3-0 on the strength of a Wehan brace before receiving a 5-0 throttling at Toyota Field in August of last year. Daily Lobo Man of the Match Moreno, who displayed the most abundant levels of creativity during the first playoff win of

United’s short tenure, was outshadowed simply by the timeliness of Wehan’s intervention in extra time. While the young forward was clinical in his chance creation, the postseason goal outweighed Moreno’s contributions in the end. Up Next New Mexico is slated to play El Paso Locomotive FC next week-

“Cops” reboot spotlights the propaganda of police By Gino Gutierrez @GGutierrez_48 “Cops,” a police procedural reality television show, has resumed production after the 32-year-old series was canceled over the summer in response to the protests over George Floyd’s death and subsequent calls for police reform in the United States. Police officers are often shown in a positive light in “Cops,” positioned to be the heroes of the show that help keep people safe and take criminals off the streets. They present their actions and authority as just and morally sound. But as with everything in reality television, the truth is far from what we see on the screen. In fact, reporting from the Los Angeles Times shows that these police officers were often set up
to look better than they actually were. The show displays unethical or just downright wrong policing as good policing, from using excessive force to detain a suspect to forcing arrestees to sign release forms while intoxicated. Police officers using excessive force is, unfortunately, nothing new in the United States. The only difference between “Cops” and the videos of police officers beating, shooting or killing unarmed Black people is that there is no producer to remove the footage that would show these officers in a negative light like there is on “Cops.” Policing in the United States isn’t easy, but we rely on these men and women to keep us safe and help us protect our community. But too often, we see videos of people getting mistreated and killed by law enforcement.
George Floyd, Breonna Taylor, Rayshard Brooks, Daniel Prude, Atatiana Jefferson, Philando Castile, Alton Sterling, Eric Garner, Tamir Rice and Michael Brown. All had their lives cut short by law enforcement officers. The actions of the officers who killed these people may very well be the same ones we don’t see when an episode of “Cops” is being filmed. We don’t know if a suspect is being put in an illegal chokehold, like the one that killed Garner. There is no transparency and no accountability. We only see what the producers of the show want us to see. “Cops” gives the officers on the program free license to dole out their brand of justice without any fear of negative repercussions if they go too far. They don’t have to worry about the public seeing them unjustly beat a suspect or talk down
to a minority, because they know it will never make it to air. It is this level of immunity (qualified or otherwise) that has allowed law enforcement officers to abuse their position of power in this nation. And instead of holding them accountable, we reward them with a medium to cast themselves as heroes. This is why the production of “Cops” resuming represents a dangerous reality in our culture. The issue isn’t about anti-police; it’s about better policing. But with the resumption of “Cops,” it shows that these cries of better policing may have fallen on deaf ears again. This is a show that glorifies their actions when this should be a time for us to look at the deeds of police officers under a powerful microscope. Acting as a form of propaganda for police, this show is incapable

‘Foody Tuesdays’ fixes moody days By Gabriel Biadora @gabrielbiadora
On Tuesdays in North Domingo Baca Park, around the time the sun sets across the high desert, local food trucks owners ignite their ovens and grills, ready their ingredients and prepare the register for an evening filled with eager customers looking for good eats. “Foody Tuesdays,” the name for the weekly recurring event in Albuquerque, brings in several local food trucks and a colorful farmers market to provide a pandemic-friendly way to enjoy some phenomenal dishes. Though the food trucks and market take up less than a block in the parking lot, there is an abundance of
variety at “Foody Tuesdays,” from refreshing beverages and desserts that make you hold on to those last glimmers of summer to internationally palatable foods, decadent meats and feel-good vegetables and fruits. One popular vendor started by chef Michael Mondragon two years ago, Mighty Mike’s Meats, offers high quality barbecue well worth the price it asks for. Mondragon’s craftsmanship can not only be tasted through the barbecue’s sensational savor and consistency, but in fine-tuned details like the sweet, golden toasted bun that hugs the shredded pork, or the crisp, deep brown edges along a tender brisket. Unlike other barbecue places whose sauces may overshadow the meats, Mondragon’s meat takes

center stage as it expels its own rich aroma and demanding flavors. The pulled pork sandwich was a masterful orchestra as the explosive juices of a crunchy pickle harmonized with the inviting chew of the perfectly moist pork. The brisket, which Mondragon told me was his proudest dish, was dynamic. Unleashing a different note of barbecued goodness with every bite, tear and swallow, the dish’s proper curation is made obvious by its cathartic tenderness, beautifully balanced with its tantalizing smokiness and the meat’s own smooth and savory juices. A few yards down is Tikka Spice, owned by Basit Guaba, a local food truck whose Pakistani and Americaninfused cooking culminates into some gourmet street food. Tikka Spice adds new tints and shades to New Mexican classics with foods like their chicken tikka tacos, while also creating exciting culinary ventures like with their curry bowls and samosas. The original curry bowl — served with either chicken tikka or paneer — is an incredibly holistic, well-rounded dish. One generous spoonful will offer the comforting, warm spices of the curry as it permeates the chicken and fulfilling basmati rice, and another bite will have the refreshing acidity of the desi salad, set with carrots, cucumber, cabbage and kachumber and showered in a garlic cream sauce. Tikka Spice is also known for their lassis — a type of smoothie made with yogurt, fruit and other spices. While the pumpkin spice latte is an ineradicable seasonal classic, Tikka Spice’s

own pumpkin spice lassi makes for a more unique and dimensional taste for autumn. The yogurt’s presence in the smoothie was unexpected to say the least, but after a few adjusting sips, the sourness grew on me as it added a unique layer to the sweet frothiness. Simply put, it tasted like liquid pumpkin pie — and a really good pumpkin pie at that. “Foody Tuesdays” is, fortunately, also well equipped with sweet goods like Wow Wow’s Lemonade Stand. Luckily, as of right now, the season in Albuquerque is temperate enough to accommodate the timeless summer indulgence: lemonade. Far from your neighbor’s kid’s lemonade stand, Wow Wow’s Lemonade Stand brings a healthy and whimsical sweetness to the event. Michael Guitierrez, owner of the Albuquerque franchise, is about to open a storefront. Guitierrez made me his favorite drink, Lava Flow, which had pressed and blended pineapples and coconut with strawberries. The lemonade’s fresh ingredients harkened thoughts of summer and strawberry fields, and jubilantly pranced between sweet and tart. Wow Wow’s galactic selections of lemonade will undoubtedly
make a great companion to any number of entries at the park. “Foody Tuesdays” is the place to go for the ultimate food high. It provides an insatiably appetizing environment, as the fragrances and palates from the various vendors collide and fuse with each other. The vendors’ respective passions for their craft are entwined within each plate they serve, ultimately deepening my respect and enjoyment of the food as a whole. It was an honor trying Mondragon’s brisket after he had spent years improving it to where it is now and to taste the food for which Guaba immigrated to make and bring here. The vendors and the cooks, the customers and their families and even the costumed stilt walker at the park all created a wholesome atmosphere for the community. To me, the best part of “Foody Tuesdays” is just seeing people enjoy themselves over some good, good food. Gabriel Biadora is a freelance reporter at the Daily Lobo.

Guns, oil and outside money: The expensive race for southern New Mexico By William Bowen @BowenWrites One of the closest congressional races in the country is taking place in southern New Mexico: House District 2, contested between incumbent Democrat Xochitl Torres Small and Republican and former state legislator Yvette Herrell. The race is a rematch of the 2018 election, which Torres Small won by only about 4,000 votes — and polling indicates the race is tight once again. After two years in Congress, the Torres Small campaign has experience and a voting record which they believe demonstrates the representative’s understanding of the district and its unique policy needs. Torres Small has emphasized
the need to work together and find moderate, bipartisan solutions to the issues facing New Mexico and the nation. Herrell, meanwhile, has touted her new campaign team and the fact that President Donald Trump is the Republican presidential nominee as evidence that she has momentum on her side. “I am a better, stronger candidate this time,” Herrell said. “Republican enthusiasm in New Mexico is also sky high with President Trump at the top of the ticket.” Trump endorsed Herrell via Twitter on Oct. 10 as the Republican Party continued their push to flip New Mexico red, which began with Trump’s Sept. 2019 rally in Rio Rancho. Polling suggests the state’s other federal congressional seats are likely
dailylobo.com to remain in Democratic hands, but the 2nd District is in question. The 2nd District has historically leaned Republican and is diverse, covering all of Las Cruces as well as a number of rural cities and towns throughout the southern half of the state. “Representative Torres Small has been, in my view, a true representative of the people because she has been able to represent the interests of her constituents (across the district),” said Dr. Magdaleno Manzanarez, professor of political science and vice president of external affairs at Western New Mexico University, which is located in the 2nd District. “It’s not a monolithic district. To me, she has proved she can do the job very well.” According to the Center for Responsive Politics, nearly four times more money has been raised in this race than either of the other House races in the state. By the most recently available data, Torres Small’s campaign has raised $4.5 million – nearly four times more than Herrell’s $1.2 million – but the Herrell campaign has raised slightly more within the district than Torres Small. Much of this money has gone to advertising, where the candidates have sparred over key issues, including Second Amendment rights and the oil and gas industry. Both candidates have run ads depicting themselves shooting weapons, in a nod to the importance of gun rights in the district. One of the Herrell campaign’s advertisements accuses Torres Small of “selling out” pro-Second Amendment constituents by voting for HR-8,

NEW MEXICO DAILY LOBO a resolution meant to close gun show sale loopholes. The ad has received pushback. KOB wrote that the claim was “misleading,” saying that the bill would not have prevented anyone from buying a gun. Torres Small issued a statement shortly after the vote on HR-8, touting the resolution as “common-sense” and bipartisan. In practice, the vote in the House largely went along party lines. Herrell has maintained that the resolution was out of line with the Second Amendment, pointing to a statement released by the Trump administration opposing it. The Herrell campaign has adopted the slogan “Stop Xocialism.” However, Torres Small has ranked as one of the most conservative Democrats in Congress according to DW-NOMINATE, a metric developed by political scientists which ranks members of Congress on how liberal or conservative they are according to their voting record. One of the topics on which Torres Small has broken at times from the rest of the Democratic Party is on subjects of oil and gas, an industry which makes up an enormous portion of New Mexico’s economy. “If we shut down oil and gas drilling in New Mexico today, we’d have to shut our schools down tomorrow,” Torres Small said in a February statement. “I will continue to support responsible energy production in the district, including one of our country’s largest sources of oil and gas in the Permian Basin.” The executive director of the New
Mexico Oil and Gas Association, Ryan Flynn, has been complimentary of Torres Small’s record while simultaneously emerging at the center of a rift between the fossil fuel trade group and the state’s Republican Party. Flynn praised Torres Small’s record and said she had been an advocate for oil and gas. Several prominent New Mexican Republicans, including party chair Steve Pearce, rebuked his statement in an op-ed in the Santa Fe New Mexican, accusing Flynn of using the trade group as a political tool. The Torres Small campaign’s statement was in opposition to the fracking ban proposed by U.S. Representative Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (NY-14). “You have to be pragmatic,” Manzanarez said. “In District 2, a true representative has to walk the line. From the progressive side, sometimes (Torres Small) has been criticized … assuming she (goes) against oil interests ... what do you do with people who make a living out of that industry?” However, Herrell says Torres Small’s advocacy for the industry is unreliable. Pointing to the representative’s changed vote on a measure preventing future presidents from banning fracking, Herrell said, “Her flip-flop… demonstrates she will cave to environmental extremists when it counts.” In-person voter registration is open until Oct. 31. Absentee ballots can be requested until Oct. 20. William Bowen is a freelance reporter at the Daily Lobo. He can be contacted at news@dailylobo.com or on Twitter @BowenWrites
