Democrats halted a bill that would have required New Mexican voters to show photo identi� cation at the polls.

Seven Democrat members on the House Voters and Elections Com-mittee defeated six Republican votes to stall legislation.

“I’m very disappointed,” said Rep. Dianne Hamilton (R-Silver City), the bill’s sponsor.

Bill opponents said language should be included that would re-quire identi� cation for mail-in ballots.

Rep. Cathrynn Brown (R-Carls-bad) introduced another bill that would require photo identi� cation at the polls and through absentee ballots. � ursday was the last day to introduce legislation.

“Polls show a large percentage of voters, nearly 70 percent in some polls I’ve seen support this mea-sure,” Brown said. “I’m hoping we can break through party politics and support a measure that a large num-ber of voters want.”

Brown could not cite speci� c polling � rms to back her claim.

Brown’s bill addresses the absen-tee ballot issue. If her bill passes vot-ers would have to submit a copy of their ID, she said.

Daniel Ivey-Soto, a lobbyist for 33 New Mexico county clerk o� c-es, said the voter ID bill is a divisive issue that makes it harder for com-prehensive election reform to take place.

“We’re very bipartisan, but the (voter ID bill) puts us in a tough situ-ation because the issue is polarized,” he said. “It makes us look like we are supporting one party over the oth-er, but we don’t care about parties. We feel election reform should be

� e UNM Women’s Resource Cen-ter is working to combat what they consider cuts aimed at New Mexico’s women.

New Mexico’s � rst female governor, Susana Martinez, proposed cutting 100 percent of funding for the N.M. Commission of the Status of Women in her Jan. 1 executive budget.

UNM WRC Interim Director Sum-mer Little said she was surprised to hear about the cut because the state needs the commission.

“When we look at how we rank in terms of domestic violence, sexual as-sault, poverty, all of the indicators of women’s wellness, the status of wom-en in the state — I think that really provides the evidence the commis-sion is still needed,” she said.

� e commission began at the WRC in the early 70s, and Little said the re-source center still has a close connec-tion with it.

WRC employee Tatiana Burks said eliminating the commission will im-pact women who use the resource center. She said the resource center may also take on some of the com-mission’s programs in the event fund-ing is cut.

“It’s not a good idea,” she said. “If (Martinez) cuts the funding, it’s go-ing to a� ect a lot of people and a lot of the people we help. … We refer a lot of the women who come here to the commission.”

Legislation repealing the N.M. Commission on the Status of Wom-en was introduced Tuesday, and, if it goes through, the commission will disappear June 30, according to House Bill 528.

� e bill would also attach the Of-� ce of the Governor’s Council on Women’s Health to the general De-partment of Health and transfer

NM judge arrested on aggravated DWI chargessee Poll ID page 3 see Centerpage 3

by Sue Major Holmes Associated Press

The head of a New Mexico an-ti-drunken-driving group is call-ing for the resignation of state Court of Appeals Judge Robert Robles, who was arrested earlier this week on drunken and reck-less driving charges.

Linda Atkinson, executive di-rector of the DWI Resource Cen-ter, said Thursday that judges need to be held to a higher stan-dard because their job requires the public’s trust.

According to a criminal com-plaint filed in Bernalillo Coun-ty Metropolitan Court, an Albu-querque police officer pulled over Robles early Wednesday af-ter having to swerve onto a side-walk to avoid Robles’ car as it sped through a red light.

“I read it and weep,” Atkinson said. “I don’t understand why people, including judges of all people, have to get into a vehicle after drinking. This eludes me.”

Robles is on unpaid leave, said Arthur Pepin, executive director of the state Administrative Office of the Courts.

The judge’s telephone number is unlisted, and he could not be reached for comment Thursday.

Robles had bloodshot eyes, his speech was slurred, and he reeked

of alcohol when he was pulled over at about 1:15 a.m. Wednes-day, the complaint said. Police arrested him after he showed signs of impairment on field so-briety tests.

The complaint said a breath test showed Robles’ blood-alco-hol level was at least twice the state’s legal limit of 0.08 percent.

Robles told officers he had been “just circling around” on a “sad and lonely night,” the complaint said.

Asked how much alcohol he had consumed, he replied, “not that much,” the complaint said.

Robles was held at the Bernalillo County Metropoli-tan Detention Center for 10 to 12 hours before being released on his own recognizance, police spokesman Robert Gibbs said. He faces misdemeanor charges of aggravated drunken driving and reckless driving, and is scheduled

Robles on unpaid leave until case goes to trial

unanimous.” During this year’s session, Ivey-

Soto said three election reforms bills are a priority for the 33 New Mexico county clerks. One would clean up election codes, another would save money and resources consolidat-ing certain voting precincts and an-other bill would create an automatic absentee ballot list.

Each bill has support from Dem-ocrats and Republicans.

Ivey-Soto investigated voter fraud claims while he was the state’s election director from 2007-08, and he said voter ID proponents are cry-ing wolf by saying this type of legis-lation will deter voter fraud.

“Some people say my neighbor or my cousin voted twice, but when you get to speci� cs those claims all fall apart,” he said. “None of us ben-e� ts. Also where is the proof? U.S. District Attorney David Iglesias, a Republican, couldn’t establish there was any voter fraud in New Mexico.”

Rep. Edward Sandoval (D-Albu-querque) said he did not support the bill because it would treat voters di� erently.

Hamilton said in 2009 she intro-duced a voter bill that would require absentee voters to submit identi� -cation but Democrats blocked it.

Ivey-Soto said that issue was not partisan but an identity theft matter.

“It had some other � aws,” he said. “A voter was to include a driv-er’s license number or social secu-rity number when they sent their ballot in the mail, and that creates a

threat of identity theft.” Still, Hamilton blamed party pol-

itics for the reason why her bill could not make it out of committee.

“� ey just weren’t going to pass this,” Hamilton said.

Lottery Scholarship closer to extension

� e time extension for students to apply for the Lottery Scholar-ship is one step away from becom-ing law.

� e House of Representatives vot-ed unanimously Wednesday to give high school graduates 16 months to apply for the Lottery Scholarship. House Bill 62, sponsored by Rep. Bill O’Neill (D-Albuquerque), will be voted on by the Senate. If passed, it will go to Gov. Susana Martinez’s desk to be signed into law.

UNM Professor Lloyd Lee or-ganized the event to allow Native American students the opportunity to interact with representatives and foster understanding for how state government works.

“� is is the � rst time we’ve done this,” Lee said. “It’s mostly designed for students to be exposed to the leg-islature. It will provide awareness, education and experience about the legislative process.”

� e WRC will have to wait and see if the bill if passed, Little said, be-fore deciding how to deal with the outcome.

“At that time we will either cel-ebrate, or � gure out how we

can preserve the commission’s components that are important to New Mexico’s women,” she said.

Regardless of the commission’s fate, Little said the resource center will remain an important part of UNM campus life.

“� ere continues to be a need for the Women’s Resource Center

because women, as a group, still face some barriers to success,” she said. “Issues of equal pay, issues of vio-lence against women, issues of imag-es of women in the media — so many issues kind of come together to still prevent a lot of women from really � nding the personal success they de-serve and want.”

An 18-year-old suspect was brought to the Medical Health Cen-ter on Feb. 6 at 10 p.m. � e sus-pect’s parents brought him to the facility after he became violent and threw a cell phone through a glass door at his parents’ home.

� e following day, at 11:10 a.m., the suspect became agitated and verbally abusive to hospital sta� , according to the police report. Secu

rity O� cer Mark Chavez told police the suspect’s actions were threatening and he tried to grab the suspect.

During the struggle, the suspect kicked Chavez in the face and bit him on the arm, breaking the skin, according to the report. Two hospi-tal employees were bitten as well, but no skin was broken, the report said.

� e suspect’s parents said their son has not been diagnosed, but they believe his violence is linked to a mental condition.

� e manager of the UNM School of Law snack bar reported Feb. 7 that an unknown suspect forced the slid-ing doors open and stole all of the bev-erages in the store’s cooler. � e man-ager said the cooler was stocked with $500 worth of merchandise, the report said.

to be arraigned March 3.Randall Roybal, executive di-

rector of the state Judicial Stan-dards Commission, said he can-not comment on specific cases. But he said the commission in-vestigates any time a judge is charged with a crime.

Roybal said the commis-sion can ask the state Supreme Court to temporarily suspend a judge pending the resolution of a charge, but that depends on the case.

Three New Mexico district judges have left the bench after facing DWI charges in the last decade.

Chief Judge Thomas Fitch of Socorro pleaded guilty to drunk-en driving and other charges in 2005 after he rolled a state-owned van into a ditch. John Brennan, chief judge in Bernalillo County, pleaded guilty to aggravated DWI and cocaine possession in 2004. Two years earlier, Judge Thomas Cornish of Las Cruces resigned after pleading guilty to DWI.

“What will it take — that we hear a judge has killed someone

in a DWI?” Atkinson said.She said she’d like judges con-

victed of DWI to lose their pen-sions and be required to do com-munity outreach.

“They need to have the con-sequences very severely. . That’s when you have people change be-havior, and that’s what we want to happen,” Atkinson said.

The head of the New Mexico chapter of Mothers Against Drunk Driving, Lora Lee Ortiz, also said leaders need to be held to high-er standards. But she said MADD is satisfied with Robles’ unpaid leave of absence since he has not gone to trial.

Robles was a state district judge in Dona Ana County for more than 17 years before being appointed to the 10-judge appel-late court in 2008 to fill a vacan-cy. He was elected to that court in November.

The Court of Appeals is the statewide intermediate appellate court, sitting between district courts below it and the New Mex-ico Supreme Court above it. It reviews appeals in most cases,

with some exceptions, including criminal cases involving sentenc-es of death or life imprisonment.

The Las Cruces Sun-News re-ported Robles, an Albuquerque native, was in private practice in Las Cruces for 16 years before be-coming a judge. During his ten-ure on the district court, his col-leagues elected him chief judge for nine years.

Editor,

Self-avowed anarchist-socialist Noam Chom-sky hopes that Wisconsin protests will turn into a nationwide “democracy uprising,” just like in Egypt.

Just like in Egypt, Noam? Where hundreds died in the street? Where people were beaten within inches of their lives? Where women were gang raped and left to die? Where Molotov cock-tails were thrown haphazardly into the air only to land among protesters, bursting into flames?

All of this to have the military take control and institute martial law?

I suppose I shouldn’t be surprised by Marx-ists, Socialists, anarchists and other malcon-tents, like Chomsky, using a budget crisis brought on by decades of leftist spending on insolvent social programs. And to use it to call for violent, mob-ruled revolution under the guise of “democ-racy” as if pure democracy were a desirable form of government.

Tyranny of the majority anyone? The Cloward-Piven strategy forces political

change through orchestrated crises. The general idea behind the strategy is to impoverish people and force them to become dependent on left-ist government social programs to survive. By overloading said programs, the government can no longer provide for dependents, and so the im-poverished masses rise up in violent revolution to overthrow the remains of the capitalist system.

This creates an artificial income equality by seizing all private poverty and wealth and redis-tributing it to all people — thus creating the com-munist dream of a classless society.

Think about that for a second. Never mind that, historically, communism

has only succeeded in creating governments that have been responsible for the executions of their own citizens while keeping others down.

These people desire communism so much that they will force generations of families into poverty in the hopes that those same people will someday turn to violence, leaving their country-men injured or dead in streets.

This willingness may best be summed up by former Service Employees International Union President Andy Stern’s recent comment that if the power of persuasion doesn’t work, then they

will use the persuasion of power to unite work-ers against capitalism. The persuasion of power. Wow.

What I don’t understand is why the average American liberal would go along with these rad-icals and support Egypt style “democracy up-risings” and “the persuasion of power” in their own backyards? Surely, John Q. Citizen is bright enough to realize myriad differences between the United States with its representative republican-ism and Middle Eastern and Northern African autocracies?

Do I expect too much from University of Wis-consin-Madison students, for example, to real-ize that equating Gov. Walker with Adolf Hitler, Benito Mussolini and Hosni Mubarak and calling for Egyptian style “democracy uprisings” against his administration might be overboard?

Should not these students understand, aside from the violence inherent in the revolutions ad-vocate for, their life stations might be less com-fortable in a classless communist society?

We seem to be sitting upon a global and do-mestic powder keg. This powder keg, whose igni-tion could bring an end to a form of government that has provided quality life for countless people worldwide, has been carefully packed and posi-tioned by extreme leftist radicals for decades.

Now the torch of radicalism is being passed from relics of academia like Piven and Chom-sky to a younger generation. It will be up to this new generation to decide whether to use that torch to touch off the powder keg of violent rev-olution ending this great experiment and usher-ing in a new age devoid of personal freedoms and liberties.

Let us hope they choose wisely, for not only do our fortunes rely on it, but those of posterity depend upon it.

Craig BullockUNM student

Editor,

The recent debacle involving the fight over light between the parking structures and the as-tronomy department has inspired me to write a short piece that I hope will benefit students, fac-ulty and staff members.

This piece calls upon us to summon a mo-ment of great introspection, to be reasonable.

Some may have read about the astronomy department’s compromised ability to see vari-ous stars and nebulas in the night sky because of the parking structure lights’ brightness. What is interesting is that when we contrast the two sciences involved, astronomy and engineering, we have the rivalry between those who want to learn more about what is beyond the world and those who want to make our own more safe and secure.

While I do believe the structure’s lights must be altered and more sensitive to the needs of the astronomy department, I feel the rivalry at play here is far stronger than it need be. Astronomers and engineers are actively using science to im-prove our world. If you can’t understand what lingers in the heavens, how then can you ful-ly understand how those objects interact with Earth?

Conversely, how can an astronomy obser-vatory function without the architects and en-gineers to construct it? The hostility between constituents of the school and their inability to interrelate is precisely the pattern I have been seeing at the University the past six months.

For instance, the Athletics Department and school administration have come under deep fi-nancial burden on how to handle budget cuts.

The unpopular President David Schmidly has taken his share of criticism.

Every time head coach Mike Locksley is paid a high salary to not win games, the school is done an injustice, but the Athletics Department gives us the camaraderie we need on the week-ends when we see the games with our friends.

But please, administrators, do not cut off im-portant resources from departments, particular-ly those in social sciences and the humanities, because you couldn’t devise a financial plan that could keep our school functioning as an ed-ucational institution. I presume the administra-tion is smart enough to foresee the unintended consequences of such an irrational action.

Our wonderful school is not a great big competition, and no department is out to get another.

And as difficult as it may be to believe, the administration is not out to get the students. We all know this yet have acted otherwise — in our words, attitudes and suspicions.

This even boils down to stereotypes assigned to college majors. “You’re pre-law? OK, so you just want to make money.” Or “You’re a music major? So what does that entail? You just play music all day?” You can see where I am going with this.

The bottom line is: An academic institution works best when there is cohesion, solidar-ity and an appreciation for what our amazing school provides. In case you didn’t know, New Mexico does not enjoy the best reputation in ed-ucation the past few years.

Let’s band together, as a University, to prove the naysayers wrong. At the very least, this is the thing we should be doing regardless.

Editor,

Who can I complain to about the wom-en’s bathrooms in Mitchell Hall? The ever-present puddles of water on the floor are bad enough, but half of the doors don’t even lock properly. In what appears to be an ex-ample of shoddy craftsmanship, many of the stall doors’ locks do not align properly, and therefore will not stay locked or closed. It may seem trivial, but I can’t tell you how frustrating it is. It’s embarrassing to the University, to say the least; Mitchell was just remodeled a few years ago, but obvious-ly somebody doesn’t know or doesn’t care enough to double-check their work.

Sarah ParroUNM student

Editor,

It seems like the revolutions in Tunisia and Egypt have inspired the people of Ye-men to follow suit. The President Ali Abdul-lah Saleh has ruled the country since 1978, and his rule has been ‘unpleasant’ to put it mildly.

Two protesters were murdered in the city of Aden. The tension is rising as Presi-dent Saleh has canceled a planned trip to his puppet masters in Washington. As that wasn’t bad enough for president Saleh, a group of influential religious scholars have also sided with the protesters and demand-ed that the time for a new government has come.

Let’s buckle up, because it looks like this is going to be a bumpy ride.

It’s been building for one of the lesser-known club teams, and now it’s the UNM hockey team’s time.

The Lobos’ chance to play for a national championship starts to-day in Colorado Springs, Colo.

UNM finished its 2010-11 American Collegiate Hockey As-sociation season 16-5-2 overall, and it opens as the No. 10 seed against No. 3 Iowa State in the ACHA National Tournament’s Pa-cific Regional.

UNM graduate student Grant Harvey, Jr. said this is the crown-ing achievement of his hockey career.

“This is one of the biggest deals of my life and collectively,” he said. “I don’t think any other member of the team has played in a bigger game. It has been some-thing that has been culminating for three to four years, and we have been waiting for a bid for that long.”

The Lobos are one of eight teams in the Pacific region, with the three other regions being the Atlantic, Northern and Southern. Each regional consists of seeds three through 10, while the top two teams bypass regionals and

earn an automatic bid to play in the Nationals tournament.

The regional tournament is single-elimination format, and UNM finds itself at a disadvan-tage since its the lowest seed in the region.

Harvey said the situation is cutthroat.

“It’s exactly like the NCAA tournament,” he said. “You win one, and you move on, and if you don’t, you’re done and you go home. I don’t want to say that it’s all for nothing, but man, how many practices and games have you played to get there?”

If the Lobos win two regional games in Colorado Springs, they will play in nationals and have a shot at a national championship.

Donald Gadomski, a member of the UNM hockey team for four years, said despite being the low-est seed in their region, the Lobos’ tough regular-season schedule helped them.

“We had a worse record than last year, but that’s because we

were playing a lot tougher sched-ule,” he said. “However, there were teams that we were able to beat this year that we weren’t able to beat this year.”

Harvey said he doesn’t mind the tournament seeding, but he feels underappreciated.

“The fact that everywhere we go, teams assume that we’re a win under their belt,” he said. “We go into every game with a chip on our shoulder, and we don’t mind being the underdog or being un-der the radar.”

Alex Allbritton is moving. But the UNM baseball team’s in-

� elder isn’t going back to his home-town of Aurora, Colo. He is travel-ing about 10 feet to his left.

Allbritton, a sophomore, played third base for the Lobos during his freshman year during the 2010 campaign. Now, Allbritton has switched to one of baseball’s most highlighted positions: shortstop.

But he said he feels at home be-tween bases.

“Being a second-year guy, I feel a lot more comfortable,” he said. “But I guess this year I feel I have a little bit more of a leadership role being a returning guy.”

While Allbritton excelled as the Lobos’ third baseman, he was sur-rounded by a veteran team in 2010. � at included former shortstop Daniel Gonzalez.

Gonzalez was considered one of the best shortstops to play at UNM and dazzled fans with great defen-sive plays.

In the � nal game of a home se-ries against national powerhouse TCU last season, Gonzalez made a throw out to � rst base at Isotopes Park that earned him a spot on ES-PN’s SportsCenter’s Top Plays on May 9, 2010.

Allbritton said there is a little bit of added pressure to replace Gon-zalez at the position.

“He was one of the best short-stops that I’ve ever played with,” he said. “He is very, very solid fun-damentally, and he never made any errors. It is a little bit of pres-sure � lling his shoes, but I feel like I have con� dence, and that I’ll be able to go out and get the job done this year.”

And the man running the team thinks Allbritton will have an All-Mountain West Conference-worthy season.

Head coach Ray Birmingham still speaks highly of Gonzalez, but said Allbritton is more than able to

by Levi [email protected]

Ray Birmingham is back to his same old shenanigans.

Looking to make it back-to-back NCAA tournament trips, the UNM baseball team opens the sea-son at No. 11 Arizona State, a team that will test the Lobos and give them valuable experience for the rest of the season.

The Lobos are looking to pull off the same shocker they did against No. 1 Texas last year. To open up last season, UNM took two of three games from the Longhorns, and the Lobos’ head coach said his squad looks to do the same against ASU.

“I like to call it baptism by fire,” Birmingham said. “Our team is ex-cited about playing ASU, and we plan on beating them. And it’s just an opening series, just a step in a season long deal. But the thing I want is these guys to grow and get experience, and the only way to do that is to play the best.”

The Lobos, coming off their first NCAA tournament appear-ance since 1962, have a pletho-ra of underclassmen mixed with

one senior. UNM also has the ser-vices of new pitching coach, Dave Martinez, who takes over for Chad Tidwell.

Behind the plate, catcher Mitch-ell Garver replaces All-American candidate Rafael Neda, who was drafted by the Milwaukee Brewers in the 10th round last June.

Birmingham said Garver will come into his own.

“He is a kid who I think will play in the big leagues someday,” he said. “He catches and throws re-ally well. He has a great swing, and as he matures and gets experience, he is going to be special.”

What will be especially tough: the Lobos’ non-conference schedule.

Before taking on MWC foes, the Lobos will face Oklahoma State, Arizona, Gonzaga, Texas Tech and Oklahoma. All are established col-lege baseball powerhouses and will prepare the Lobos if they are to make a postseason run.

UNM will also have its final duel with five-time defending Moun-tain West Conference champion, TCU. The MWC preseason poll has the Horned Frogs as unanimous fa-vorites to win their sixth consecu-

step in for the alumnus.“Alex has some big shoes to � ll,” Birmingham

said. “But I think that he is very capable of do-ing that and becoming a professional baseball player.”

Allbritton isn’t playing professionally yet, but he does have some experience for the Lobos. � is season, he is the only returning starter — not only in the in� eld — but on the team.

In his � rst year, Allbritton’s opening series was at No. 1 ranked Texas. He was part of a Lobo club that went to the NCAA tournament for the � rst time in 48 years.

“I mean, I was pretty nervous (last year) go-

ing and playing Texas,” he said. “We did have a lot of older guys to kind of calm the nerves. But I feel that everybody on (this year’s) team knows what they have to do, and I don’t feel like I have to guide anybody or do anything special.”

If anything, Allbritton is a quiet leader. He said he lets his playing do the talking, and when teammates ask about playing big-time baseball schools, he reminds the newest Lobos that he was in the same spot one year ago.

“I am not much of a vocal guy,” he said. “A couple of the younger guys have come to me and if they’re struggling I just tell them, ‘Hey, just calm down. I mean, I was in the same position

that you were last year and I was a little nervous.’ Overall, I just try to lead by example by hustling and doing the right things fundamentally.”

Tonight, UNM opens the season at always-di� cult Arizona State.

Allbritton said that the team experienced a few nerves because they’re opening against such a formidable foe. But then again, Allbritton reminds himself it’s still college baseball.

“I’ve been told that if (their players) were that much better than anyone else, they would be in the big leagues,” Allbritton said. “� ey are just another team, and we don’t have to stress it too much.”

tive MWC regular-season title, and various baseball polls have them ranked in the top 3 nationally.

In order to get back to the post-season, Birmingham said pitching will factor into how successful the Lobos are this season.

“I think the Achilles heel for this program has always been pitching. Always. We have six drafted pitch-ers, and we spent our money on pitching.” he said. “We went out and recruited some of the better pitchers around the country that we could acquire.”

Junior pitcher Rudy Jaramillo

said this year’s team has the best pitching rotation and depth since he’s been at UNM.

“It was kind of weird going out this fall and having a 3-1 game or a 2-0 game,” he said. “It was differ-ent. We have a lot of young pitch-ers this year, and hopefully I can guide them the right way.”

Despite having a young team, Birmingham said the team doesn’t lack talent — and that’s why he isn’t apprehensive starting his club off against the best of the best.

“I want them to play the best — anybody, whoever we have to get
