About this listen
Even before she was elected to be the new chair of the Democratic Party of New Mexico in late April, Sara Attleson was traveling the state and spreading the message of party unity while visiting 22 of New Mexico’s 33 counties. She has continued her travels in her first month on the job, saying her focus is to show up and listen.
Attleson joined Santa Fe New Mexican senior state politics reporter Daniel J. Chacón for the latest episode of “Around the Roundhouse” to share her mission for the state’s Democratic Party and talks about the work she’s been up to so far — including establishing party infrastructure in the six counties in the state that have none.
Chacón asks Attleson, a former librarian, about what drew her to New Mexico, how she became involved in politics and why she decided to run for the Democratic Party chair. She is asked if the party has lost its way and about how the party should respond after Donald Trump made inroads in the state in the 2024 presidential election.
