Ben Ray Lujan is running for Congress in New Mexico’s diverse third district.
He is young and progressive. He supports universal health care, single payer or otherwise. He hopes to transform northern New Mexico’s national laboratories into alternative energy research facilities. And, as the grandson of a farmer and sheepherder, he overflows with ideas about sustainable agriculture.
He is expected to win.
More about El Norte, New Mexico’s third Congressional District, and her favored son after the jump.

(Not to mention Roger Montoya’s art!) Let’s hope he wins by a huge margin. In fact, Ben Ray’s popularity in rural Northern New Mexico is giving Obama and Udall a boost.
