Lori Martinez Can’t Be Trusted With Our Tax Dollars

While Lori Martinez was Executive Director of a local nonprofit she spent more than the charity took in, in half of the years she has been in charge — once by over two hundred and sixty thousand dollars ($260,000) (1). That’s not someone we can trust to manage our taxpayer dollars.

Lori Martinez is the handpicked candidate of Santa Fe insiders. While Martinez serves as the Executive Director of a nonprofit where Representative Joanne Ferrary’s husband is a board member(2), Representative Ferrary has funneled over $6,000 into Martinez’s campaign — more than a quarter of her total donations (3). We need a real campaign, not a coronation. Our community deserves an independent voice, not a handpicked insider.
