Yes, the race is on even though Gov. Susana has no Republican primary opponent, she's on TV with an spot telling about all the wonderful things she's done.
Yes, it's all positive. The rough stuff starts later.
Martinez: Being governor has never been about making a name for myself. It's about making a difference in the lives of New Mexicans.
Announcer: Largest deficit ever, gone without raising taxes. Bipartisan Jobs package. Cut taxes 24 times. #1 in export growth. Improving our schools. Graduation rates up. Hispanics lead the nation on advanced placement tests.
Martinez: I grew up knowing what it's like to struggle…..and how we all help one another. Helping people. It's the best part about being*governor. Helping kids read by the 3rd grade so they can chase their dreams. Helping small businesses create good jobs. There's more to do, but I believe in New Mexico and that tomorrow will be better than today.
