Here's the thing about election coverage: It's tedious, time-consuming work that no one else is doing. But it's absolutely essential for democracy. Help us keep our election coverage free for ABQ voters through Election Day.
Thousands of New Mexicans answered the call and gathered on Saturday, Oct. 18, in Downtown Albuquerque for the second national “No Kings” day of action protesting policies of President Donald Trump. The event, sponsored by Indivisible Albuquerque, was part of a national day of coordinated protests by Indivisble, a left-leaning organizing group.
Marchers filled Central Avenue from 2nd St. to 6th St. Our award-winning photographer Roberto Rosales was there to capture the event.

No Kings. We voted in a president. Get over it. Term limits for politicians. No illegal aliens. No snap and medical for illegals. No sanctuary states. Give the money to Americans. Homeless, seniors, children. Better leaders. Leaders with a business background.
Great photos, but no estimate of crowd size? Organizers Saturday said 40,000. That’s a stretch, but I might believe 20K. It took the curb-to-curb march line fully 45 minutes to pass me at Central and 2nd. Republicans say 5,000.

NOT a good idea to run print info over the top of great photos!
Great pictures and coverage. Thank you.
