Trump Campaign Rally in Albuquerque Faces Traffic and Venue Challenges

Former President Donald Trump is holding a campaign rally in Albuquerque, New Mexico, amid significant political and logistical challenges. The visit comes as New Mexico is seen as a potential battleground state for Republicans, who are eager to flip Democrat-held seats. However, the rally has sparked controversy, with top Democrats criticizing the visit as a waste of time, while Republicans view it as a strategic move to capture Hispanic voters. Despite the excitement, organizers are grappling with heavy traffic delays around the Sunport due to the influx of thousands of rallygoers, leading to a squabble among city officials over parking arrangements. The event coincides with Halloween, as both Trump and Vice President Harris are scheduled to hold rallies in Southwestern states, drawing further attention in the lead-up to the election.
