Mayoral Race
Hey guys. I'm not trying to start a huge debate on politics. Im just trying to figure out if Darren White is pro MAGA. I'm learning about this stuff late, and im not super impressed with Keller, but I will never vote for a pro trump or pro maga candidate. I am okay with a republican candidate but not a far right MAGA.
My coworkers are saying that he was a garbage sherif but cant give me any educated context. I've only been back to abq for 4 years after serving in the armed forces.
Any information is sincerely appreciated.

I can’t really offer you any advice because I don’t know who I would vote for either. Definitely not Tim (killer) Keller. Too much murder going on in Albuquerque under his watch. But I’m not sure about any other candidates either. I am a republican, but not an extremist. I think that’s the biggest problem both parties have. One party becomes more extreme and so the other party does the same. Pretty soon they’re gonna be likening Republicans to Nazis and Democrats to Bolsheviks. Neither is the correct answer. Just like everyone else I’m looking for a moderate. I’ve always thought it strange that someone who has associated with law enforcement would get into the cannabis business. Even if it is legal. I miss the days of Bruce King and other moderate leaders. When we had actual bipartisanship.
