The Santa Fe New Mexican is out with a column blasting Governor Michelle Lujan Grisham for the Cuomo-esque allegation made against her of sexual assault against a male staffer.
This credible allegation against MLG is fresh on voters’ minds after GOP nominee Mark Ronchetti began running an ad highlighting the $150k sexual assault settlement the Governor made.
Take a look at the Santa Fe New Mexican’s column:
Lujan Grisham figured Padilla could do nothing but hurt her if he won the Democratic nomination for lieutenant governor in 2018. Knowing he was unwelcome as the #MeToo movement against sexual misconduct gathered steam, Padilla quit the race.
Lujan Grisham, now the governor, faced no such insurgency from fellow Democrats after she spent $150,000 in campaign funds to pay a settlement to a former aide, James Hallinan.
He accused Lujan Grisham of the sort of misconduct that would sink a male candidate.
Hallinan said Lujan Grisham poured water on his crotch and then grabbed his crotch during a campaign staff meeting before the 2018 election….
The governor’s settlement with Hallinan is just the sort of case Lujan Grisham would pounce on if it involved a political rival. Her main opponent in next month’s election is former television weatherman Mark Ronchetti, who’s run a clumsy campaign and trails in the polls.
But Ronchetti is the only Republican with a shot at winning a statewide election in New Mexico. Will the #MeToo movement rally to his side before the campaign staggers to a close?
