KUNM Call In Show 6/2 8a:
Officials are expecting a high turnout in New Mexico’s primary election June 7th. Donald Trump has already won enough delegates to secure the Republican nomination for president. Bernie Sanders shows no signs of dropping out even as Hillary Clinton scoops up more delegates for the Democratic party nomination. But there are many state and local races. Republicans are seeking to hold on to the state House of Representatives and possibly take control of the state Senate.
Will you vote in the primary this year? What are the issues and races you’re most concerned about? We’d like to hear from you! Email callinshow@kunm.org or call in live during the show.
