Letter To The Editor: Worthy Woman
By DICK and NANCY BOUDRIEWe usually don’t write an opinion letter to the newspaper. After receiving a derogatory flyer in the mail against Christine Chandler, we decided to write an opinion supporting Christine Chandler for the New Mexico House Dist. 43.
Christine and I (Nancy) worked together on two cases at the Los Alamos National Laboratory, and I found her excellent in working with the facts and picking out the truth for a fair, legal decision. Christine has always listened, weighed the facts and worked hard for the people of Los Alamos.
As with all community issues, there are always Read More

Christine Chandler. Courtesy/Friends for ChristineNesmith: When Will True Republicans Take A Stand?
By JAMES L. NESMITHI fail to understand why the Republican Party of Los Alamos has not repudiated and disavowed Lisa Shin’s candidacy for State House District 43. Her campaign employs some of the most vitriolic, hateful, unethical, shameful, misleading, disgraceful and immoral tactics that I’ve seen in my 72 years.
Her false statements, her misleading and phony “Los Alamos Post” newspaper mailer as well as her most recent mailer (a nearly classic example of morally contaminated and corrupt political chicanery), her lack of knowledge of veteran affairs, her total Read More

Letter To The Editor: Time For A Qualified Judge
By JON DOORNI strongly encourage Los Alamos Voters to vote for Elizabeth Allen as municipal court judge. She is the only candidate that has law credentials, and she has plenty of experience involving what the municipal court handles. She has been running her own law firm for over 10 years and has shown her commitment to our community through her involvement in the Los Alamos Teen Court.
I first met Elizabeth three years ago when I joined the Los Alamos Teen Court as a freshman. For readers who are not familiar with Teen Court, it is a system where teens who commit misdemeanors Read More

Letter To The Editor: Christine Chandler Cares
By CRISTINA OLDSYou may have just read my name and thought, “Hm, who’s that?” The answer is, no one in particular, and that’s why I’m writing.
I was no one to the County Councilors when I emailed them about the sheriff issue, about the immigration proclamation, and about the flow trail. Christine Chandler warmly reached out to meet for coffee and discuss the myriad angles of each issue, despite me being no one of importance.
Christine has consistently offered her deep knowledge on a number of topics that relate to the County when my progressive activism group, Voices of Los Alamos, has Read More
