Alexander Uballez, former US Attorney, announces run for Albuquerque mayor
Alexander Uballez, who oversaw the U.S. Attorney’s Office in New Mexico for three years, is running to become the mayor of Albuquerque.
Uballez, who filed to run on Wednesday, officially announced he would vie for the top executive position in Albuquerque on Friday. The election so far is set to pit eight challengers against an incumbent seeking a third term, as residents express concerns about crime, an increasing number of unhoused residents and economic uncertainty.
Uballez told the Journal he wanted to push through what he called a choice between “someone who’s ineffective and someone who’s wrong.”
“We’ve really become disconnected from one another, and the pressures of just living have driven us to hate each other, not see each other as humans. We can change all this. There are proven strategies,” Uballez said.
