RESERVE – Tia Steele, vice chairwoman of the Catron County Democratic Party, said uniting people to work together for the common good of the county is one of her goals, during a recent visit to Reserve by the state party chairman.
A lifelong resident of Datil, Steele said she understands the issues facing the county and is ready to help get people together to solve them.
“Catron County faces tremendous issues. Underground water rights to economic expansion – to name a few – decisions will define this county for years. We need to work together as a community to do what is best for us,” said Gary Clauss, Catron County Democratic Party chairman.
A resident of Glenwood, Clauss said he believes understanding among county residents to work for the common good are not only doable, but vital for everyone.
Catron County has a rich and interesting history in the political arena. Betty Radvillas, secretary-treasurer, shared the following memory.
“About 10 years ago, candidates Lena Milligan and Jim Blanc received the same number of votes for an office. To break the tie, they decided to draw high card from a deck of cards. Jim won,” Radvillas said.
Rural residents historically have a unique challenge in getting their voices heard.
“In years past, we banded together. Everyone got involved. We were able to make our needs not only known but addressed. In this day and age, we need to encourage people to become part of the process. We did it once, and we can do it again,” said Bob Atwood.
“People here recognize the strengths of family values, patriotism and strong Second Amendment rights. These are strengths we all firmly believe in. By channeling these strengths into information and education awareness, we can send our messages loud and clear,” said Brian Colón, former state Democratic Party chairman, who visited Reserve recently. He is running for lieutenant governor.
At one time in his career, Colón was sponsored by state Supreme Court Justice Patricio Serna, a prominent native of Catron County.
