Albuquerque – ABQ Success, a Measured Finance Committee established by the Republican Party of New Mexico, launched a new web ad today highlighting progressive mayoral candidate Brian Colón's tirade on the city of Albuquerque.

While campaigning for Lt. Governor, Colón publicly stated:

"We have believed that Albuquerque is the center of the state, the center of the universe and it's the only part of New Mexico that matters. Those days are over."

"Voters can't trust a politician who will say anything to score a few political points," said RPNM spokesman Dominic Pacheco. "Albuquerque needs a mayor with the vision and passion to move the city forward. Brian Colón is just another progressive politician whose policies will hurt our economy at the expense of Albuquerque workers and families. In contrast to Colón's progressive, big-government agenda, Republicans want to make Albuquerque one of the best places in the country to find a job and raise a family."
