The press—in the person of our friend and Capitol Report New Mexico colleague Mark Bralley—was thrown out of the state Republican Party's Quadrennial Convention that was held Saturday in Las Cruces. Other press representatives, who didn't arrive early enough to get tossed, were kept from entering, Bralley says.
While amazing and inappropriate, the behavior is consistent. When building the Capitol Report mailing list, I went to the two parties for names. The Democrats said: Our central committee is posted. Download and go for it. The Republicans would not even give me the few names that were on the party Web site, much less the entire central committee.
It toughs, GOP dudes, to talk about transparency when you don't play by those rules.
Amazing...
