    Said Representative Cote, “ I have worked hard to serve the needs of my constituents.  I am honored to be re-elected and have the opportunity to continue to be a strong voice for all New Mexican families during my next term.”
    “During his first term, Representative Cote worked tirelessly to improve the lives of those he represents,” said New Mexico House of Representatives Majority Leader Ken Martinez. “For example, he addressed the needs of our veterans and our military members and their families.  He created jobs through economic development initiatives.
