ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — Republican lawmakers scrambled on Wednesday to distance themselves from shooting suspect and failed GOP candidate Solomon Pena. Pena, who lost his race for the New Mexico state House, was arrested Monday in connection with a string of shootings at the homes of state and local Democratic leaders, police said. This individual was a felon in possession of a gun who conspired to terrorize and harm New Mexico families,” New Mexico Senate Republican Leader Senator Greg Baca said in a statement. He lost in a landslide to House incumbent Democrat Miguel P. Garcia by 5,679 to 2,033, or 74% to 26%. On Wednesday, New Mexico Republican leaders insisted they are opposed to "violence in any form."
A failed New Mexico state House candidate visited the homes of local Democratic leaders to vehemently dispute his election loss weeks before he allegedly orchestrated a series of shootings at the residences, elected officials said. “Peña came to my house right after the (November) election. Police spokesperson Gilbert Gallegos said at a news conference early Monday evening that Peña alleged his defeat was the result of election fraud. Peña lost his state House challenge to incumbent Democrat Miguel P. Garcia by 5,679 to 2,033, or 74% to 26%. He took his case to three county commissioners and a state senator — some whose homes were targeted in the shootings — to no avail, Gallegos said.
The New Mexico GOP candidate accused of plotting shootings of Democrats' homes was "aggressive" and "erratic." One official told NBC News that Pena appeared at his house after the election and spouted election conspiracies. Bernalillo County Commissioner Adriann Barboa told NBC News that Peña showed up at her house right after the November election. O'Malley told NBC that he did not threaten her at the time but she quickly called the police after he came by. New Mexico police accused Peña of hiring four men to carry out the shootings; he may have also personally shot at one of the houses himself.
