Daniel ChacónHOST
You've got Cindy Nava as the new majority whip, and the caucus reelected Leo Jaramillo as caucus chair.
Daniel ChacónHOST
The caucus nominated Senator Mimi Stewart to continue to serve as president pro tem, but that will require a, a vote of the entire chamber, correct?
Linda TrujilloGUEST
That is correct.
Linda TrujilloGUEST
That is correct.
Mark RonchettiHOST
It goes back to 2024.
Mark RonchettiHOST
And it's an incident with President Pro Tem Mimi Stewart, who ran into somebody in Santa Fe on her way back from an event at the governor's residence.
Mark RonchettiHOST
Okay.
Mark RonchettiHOST
So she was at the governor's residence for the first day of the session in 2024.
Krysty RonchettiHOST
OK, well, let's listen to let's take some of the clips right off the top here.
Krysty RonchettiHOST
Let's let me read a little bit of the article that went along with it, and then we'll show you some of the video.
Krysty RonchettiHOST
The headline says Senator Mimi Stewart called governor's office after 2024 crash in Santa Fe.
Krysty RonchettiHOST
After leaving a reception at the governor's mansion on the first day of the 2024 legislative session, Senate President Meany Stewart told Santa Fe police a pedestrian who allegedly she had run over his foot popped out of nowhere.
Joe GigantiHOST
I get it.
Joe GigantiHOST
But it's still funny, uh, when I saw this story about the Senate President Pro Tem Mimi Stewart.
Joe GigantiHOST
Uh, so this goes back, it's only coming out now, uh, but back in 2024, on the first day of the legislative session, there is a reception, uh, in the governor's mansion.
Joe GigantiHOST
It's, that would be the same governor, you know, Michelle Lujan Grisham.
Joe GigantiHOST
Now, it's a little bit unclear by the testimony of Mimi Stewart, but on her way home from this event, which, I mean, one can only assume that there were adult beverages being served, she ran over a pedestrian's foot.
Joe GigantiHOST
Now, accor- Charlie starts laughing.
Joe GigantiHOST
Yes, only a foot was hurt here.
Joe GigantiHOST
Uh, now according to the information that was volunteered by Mimi Stewart, she said she didn't know where the person came from, that the foot popped out of nowhere.
Paul GessingHOST
Senator Cindy Nava is the new majority whip.
Paul GessingHOST
Other members of the Democrats leadership team in the Senate include Mimi Stewart and Leo Jaramillo.
Paul GessingHOST
I would say that this is a very status quo situation.
Paul GessingHOST
Not that I would expect anything different.
Wally DrangmeisterHOST
Yes, but not all that new and not at the top.
Wally DrangmeisterHOST
The Senate pro tem is the most powerful of all those.
Wally DrangmeisterHOST
I'd say, you know, if they were the chess pieces, that would be the queen and not just because Mimi Stewart's in the position.
Wally DrangmeisterHOST
That's a powerful position, more powerful than probably all the rest of them put together.
Joe MonahanGUEST
Well, thanks for having me on again, and it's good to be with you for another half hour.
Joe MonahanGUEST
The blog has been covering the campaign pretty exhaustively with the debates for like three or four days in a row until this week, and then we got into some other stuff like the Democrats looking for Senate leadership that will be coming up for a vote here over the weekend with Mimi Stewart.
Joe MonahanGUEST
running again for president pro tem.
Joe MonahanGUEST
That's kind of an insider thing.
