Haaland and Garcia-Richard Unite for New Mexico | Santa Fe News

Deb Haaland and Stephanie Garcia-Richard are officially teaming up on the campaign trail, with Garcia-Richard chosen as Haaland’s running mate for Lieutenant Governor — a win that narrowly edged out State Senator Harold Pope. Together, they’re rallying around New Mexico families, pushing for affordable healthcare, safer communities, and economic stability so residents can afford rent and groceries. Garcia-Richard, former state land commissioner, brings a proven record in revenue generation, renewable energy, and affordable housing — while both candidates stand united in protecting Chaco Canyon from oil and gas drilling. Their campaign is already hitting the ground running with joint events, including a big appearance in Sandoval County, focused squarely on delivering real change for New Mexicans.
