Neomi Martinez-Parra stressed that healthcare and education should be top priorities for New Mexico. She was defeated by Republican Crystal Diamond.
“Speaking to voters, the number one concerns that voters have had right now is COVID, and healthcare. And of course education, so I think we need to look at those,” Martinez-Parra said.
She also talked about her campaigning efforts, saying she felt that the campaign did everything they could possibly do to ensure victory, even highlighting the ways they campaigned during the pandemic.
“You know, we had to resort to other things like mail and Facebook and lots of other email,” Martinez-Parra said. “So it's been different, but we were able to do it, even in the primary, and the nice thing about it is that people are home. And so we've had some wonderful conversations with voters.”
