In what turned into a blowout, Congresswoman Heather Wilson blew out her competition in this past week's Eye Poll. In our unscientific poll Wilson received 51%, Martin Chavez 29%, and rounding out the poll with 20% is Congressman Steve Pearce (See the results here).
Granted Congressman Pearce has not officially announced and we didn't include the lower tier Democrat candidates, but we were surprised by the 22 point margin tilting Heather's way. It will be interesting to see how events unfold as the Republican candidates head into a primary for Pete's seat.
On the D side, our Eyes tell us that Democrats are putting tremendous pressure on Congressman Tom Udall to take on Marty in their primary. We're also told that His Largeness courteously introduced Mayor Chavez at his first New Mexico presidential rally as the Mayor of Albuquerque; notably omitting Chavez's senate bid even though he's the only major candidate to have announced for the Democrats.
This week we'll take an early look at the 1st Congressional District race. We've included all of the candidates that have committed to the race thus far. Don't forget to vote!

You said it best!!
Darren White is the best choice! He will be the best candidate.
Marty Chavez and his minions must go! He is too corrupt to be a senator............
I wonder what job Darren will give Ray Schultz when he is elected. You may think he is clean, but take a close look at who he keeps company with. Darren will o whatever Sal tells him to do. At least with Marty we know here Ray Boy will be!
Marty's big fund raising dinner is coming this week at $2300 a plate. His minions are putting it together right now, some on city time no doubt
My vote will be for Marty!
vote early and vote often is Marty's campaign slogan.
Marty? Why? You on the payroll for the last decade? Do you think he will take you to Washington and get you a job? Start looking, cause he ain't goin' anywhere.
Go shave that cheesey beard off, you are beginning to look like you sound.
Marty has my vote!
WTF???? Sensorship, HERE? Since when are scruples, principles and ethics and decency factors here? We like it fine the way it so, let all spew their heart content, if we can't piss here, where else?
Has the eye developed a conscience or are we trying to protect someone? So who decides what gets deleted so not be one sided? This is no better than the almighty himself, didn't someone start snibbling because they were blocked from the airport and plaza?
I hope you are wiping both cheeks!
