Weather derails New Mexico governor’s trip to Tennessee
SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) – Gov. Susana Martinez’s quick trip Tennessee has been derailed by weather.
The governor’s office confirmed that Martinez was unable to make the trip to Nashville to speak at a law enforcement conference hosted by the Tennessee Highway Patrol.
The two-term Republican governor’s flight was delayed due to weather and as a result she didn’t go.
Martinez had been invited as part of an effort to encourage women to take up leadership roles in public safety.
A former prosecutor and the nation’s only Latina governor, Martinez would have joined officials from Minnesota, Michigan and elsewhere for the conference.
