From SantaFeNewMexican.com:
The state Attorney General’s Office is reviewing a scathing letter of resignation from the recently resigned state Bureau of Elections director that accuses the Secretary of State’s Office of violating New Mexico’s Governmental Conduct Act and election laws.
The letter in question is from A.J. Salazar, who resigned Friday. It reportedly accuses Secretary of State Mary Herrera of soliciting donations from companies that contract with her office and ordering some of her employees to gather signatures on petitions for her re-election campaign.
Phil Sisneros, a spokesman for Attorney General Gary King, said in an e-mail to The New Mexican that “we never discuss ongoing investigations, including whether or not there is one.” But, he added, “I can tell you that the letter is being reviewed by our folks.”
