Social events were the order of the day on the Friday before the DPNM Pre-Primary Convention's business meeting on Saturday, March 13, at Buffalo Thunder Resort on Pojoaque Pueblo. Delegates and politicos started arriving in late afternoon to register early and attend a variety of fun events hosted by the Party and various candidates.

When Democrats claim we're the party of the people, we mean it. This weekend approximately 2,160 delegates will be on hand to hear speeches, vote for primary candidates, get motivated and talk politics with fellow Dems from all over the state during the DPNM Pre-Primary Convention at Buffalo Thunder Resort in Pojaoque. The media is welcome all day Saturday when delegates attend the Party's business meeting from 10:00 AM to 4:00 PM to determine the order of primary candidates on the Dem ballot and whether or not candidates will need to gather more petition signatures. They need to get at least 20% of the vote to get on the ballot automatically for the June 2, 2010 primary.
