Criminal defense attorney Sam Bregman says he’ll challenge Javier Gonzales for the chairmanship of the Democratic Party of New Mexico later this year.
“The last election cycle was unacceptable, as far as I am concerned,” Bregman was quoted by the Albuquerque Journal as saying.
Bregman is a well-known attorney who defended, among others, former state Treasurer Robert Vigil in his public corruption case.
Letitia Montoya, who most recently worked on the losing campaign of former Secretary of State Mary Herrera, says she’s also seeking the position.
Democrats will gather in April to pick a new chair.
