Gov. Bill Richardson’s Tuesday trip to Las Cruces will include five-minute meetings with members of the public and a fundraiser for 2nd Congressional District Democratic candidate Harry Teague.
Richardson’s schedule begins at 2:30 p.m. with a ribbon cutting ceremony for a new teen center for the Boys & Girls Club, 330 West Las Cruces Avenue. He will appear on local radio stations before holding office hours from 5-6 p.m. at his Las Cruces office, located at 505 South Main Street, Suite 145.
Richardson will grant five-minute meetings on a first-come, first-serve basis, according to a news release from his office. Those seeking time with the governor must have a valid New Mexico driver’s license. The release states that those who want help resolving problems should bring documentation. Richardson won’t meet with anyone who has a formal grievance or lawsuit pending with the state.
According to the Democratic Party’s Web site, Richardson will then attend a fundraiser for Teague that is scheduled to begin at 5:30 p.m. and last until 7 p.m., so he’ll apparently be fashionably late.
For more information on the fundraiser or to RSVP, call Vivek Gopalan at (575) 649-4180 or vivek@harryteagueforcongress08.com.
