I think there’s also probably a stratum of soft Domenici support or uncertainty/indecision because she has a familiar name (added onto the ambient anti-incumbent atmosphere nationally and globally), with many of those people not actually wanting Republicans to control the Senate when it comes down to it. I agree with the other replier that the race will not ultimately end up being competitive (though as a Heinrich guy from way back, it still pains me to see!).

Yeah. Gotta think the Domenici name sets a high floor for her. Given that he was on of NM's senators for 36 years, it's very possible that his name still is familiar to more people than that of Heinrich, who's finishing up his second term.
