Albuquerque mayor Martin Chavez to seek Senate seat being vacated by Pete Domenici - New Mexico

“Albuquerque Mayor Martin Chavez said Tuesday he will run for the seat being vacated by retiring Republican U.S. Sen. Pete Domenici.

Chavez, the highest-profile Democrat to enter the 2008 race so far, announced in a race that was thrown wide open last week by Domenici’s announcement that he would not seek re-election because of his health.

Chavez said that as senator, he would vote to end the war in Iraq.”*
