Got my N.M. ballot today (Who are these people?)
For a number of years I've voted 'absentee' due to health reasons.
When I read the 2016 ballot, the familiar names are on it (Trump, Clinton, Johnson, Stein)
plus some candidates and parties I've never heard of. (Doesn't matter, as I voted for Hillary)
Do you know these?
Gloria La Riva -- Party for Socialism and Liberation
Darrell Castle -- Constitution Party
"Rocky" Roque de la Fuente -- American Delta Party
Evan McMullen -- Better For America Party
(OK - this guy I've heard of, he's the 'independent' Republican opposing Trump, but never heard of the party)
I suspect some states have even more parties/candidates.
