“I'm running to be your next state Representative for House District 7.” (Rickie Gonzales II Campaign Website)
“Hi, I'm Rickie Gonzales — Democrat for State Representative, House District 7. I've lived in Valencia County nearly my whole life. I'm a REGULAR person with AVERAGE problems — and the GUTS to be a voice for you! For too long, this district has been a NO vote in Santa Fe on things that would help us. I want to turn that no into a YES — for struggling families, safe communities, and our freedoms. November 3rd. RUN WITH ME.” (Rickie Gonzales II Campaign Website)
“I went to Raymond Gabaldon, Daniel Fernandez, and Los Lunas Middle School. I spent my high school years in Alaska — and I came back, because this is where I'm from. I've spent my working life commuting these roads, sitting in this traffic, and watching a county grow up all around a district that keeps getting left out of it.” (Rickie Gonzales II Campaign Website)
