Home » PHOTOS: Officers, neighbors gather for National Night Out
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.
Officers, deputies and city leaders fanned out across Albuquerque Tuesday night to meet with residents for National Night Out. The annual event is billed as an opportunity for neighbors to socialize, meet one another and “join fellow citizens in our community’s fight against crime.”
