Incumbent Eric Olivas and the candidates running to unseat him for Bernalillo County District 5 say they have the tools to tackle top issues facing the area 鈥� which runs from Southeast Albuquerque far into the East Mountains.

Olivas is facing off with Byron Powdrell in the Democratic primary, while Wayne Yevoli and Thomas Riley battle to claim the Republican nomination. 

According to the most recent campaign finance disclosures, Olivas has raised just over $55,700, $16,000 of it from the most recent reporting period, while Powdrell has raised a total of $6,400 in the most recent period.

Olivas鈥� largest donations were $6,200 from the Albuquerque Area Firefighters 244 PAC, $2,500 from the JANE PAC, $2,000 from the Plumbers and Steamfitters Local Union and $1,000 from the New Mexico Wild Fund PAC. The majority of Powdrell鈥檚 donations, $6,200, came from Rebecca Weh, wife of 2014 Republican U.S. Senate candidate Allen Weh.

Riley raised a total of $575, all from this reporting period, including $500 from the Republican Party of Bernalillo County, according to the most recent disclosures. Yevoli 鈥� who filed a disclosure under an account from his 2024 campaign 鈥� claimed no fundraising during the most recent reporting period.

The Secretary of State鈥檚 Office said it would reach out to Yevoli 鈥渢o clarify the need for a 2026 account to include reports in alignment with timing requirements.鈥�

Olivas touted his ability to 鈥済et things done鈥� over his last term, including rebuilding Los Vecinos Community Center in Tijeras, changing a behavioral health ordinance to fill the Tiny Home Village and increasing pay and staffing at the Bernalillo County Sheriff鈥檚 Office.

鈥淚 feel like the formula we're using is working, and so I'm asking the voters to trust me for four more years,鈥� he said.

Going forward, Olivas said he is looking to increase public safety by expanding BCSO鈥檚 metro team, expanding and updating behavioral health services, addressing declining well water tables, upgrading roads and improving broadband access to the East Mountains.

He said he would like to address conditions at the Metropolitan Detention Center to come into compliance with the McClendon jail-overcrowding case and have 鈥渓ocal people running our local jail.鈥�

鈥淧eople that you know speak the language, grew up here, understand the culture and the people and the challenges that are unique to us,鈥� Olivas said. 鈥淪o I want to see us stop paying consultants and start paying our own people.鈥�

Powdrell said he would make it a 鈥渇ull-time job鈥� to oversee the district, which he noted has a unique sprawl between the urban areas of Albuquerque and the rural East Mountains.

鈥淚f our issues were part time, we could look at it that way. But these are issues that have to be dealt with every day,鈥� Powdrell said,  adding that he would not use a 鈥渙ne-size-fits-all鈥� approach on the different municipalities.

He said crime is 鈥渞idiculous鈥� in portions of Southeast Albuquerque and he would focus on improving public safety. Outside the city limits, he said he wants to upgrade infrastructure and improve water tables. Across the board, Powdrell said he would tackle mental health issues, particularly for those isolated in the East Mountains.

No matter the issue, Powdrell said he would listen to all sides and have conversations with all members of the community.

鈥淚'd have to go on tour and have constructive meetings, and some meetings they're going to beat me up, but you got to have that conversation,鈥� he said.

Riley said that, as county commissioner, he would not be 鈥淎merica first鈥� but 鈥淎merica only鈥� 鈥� focusing on 鈥渢hings that better American citizens.鈥� He said he has a special tie to the East Mountains where he lives.

Riley said he would work with Bernalillo County sheriff鈥檚 deputies and Albuquerque police to crack down on open-air drug markets in the city. In the East Mountains he would focus on water conservation, protecting the resource from big developments and corporations. 

Riley said he would work to end Bernalillo County鈥檚 鈥渟anctuary鈥� jurisdiction.

鈥淓very aspect of our lives would be better if people who should not be here are gone or leave, go home,鈥� he said. 

Riley said to serve District 5 he would not leave anyone out of the conversation, adding 鈥測ou talk to constituents here, you talk to constituents down in Albuquerque, and you find a solution that works for everyone, which is sometimes hard.鈥�

Yevoli said he wants to see the county become more economically vibrant, by bringing more businesses and jobs. He specified it needed to be the 鈥渞ight businesses,鈥� with development in appropriate areas.  

鈥淭he county has a lot of opportunities to grow and to become better鈥� to give people a better life here,鈥� Yevoli said. 

He said, if elected, he would increase the amount of Bernalillo County deputies patrolling and provide better response times in an emergency. Yevoli said he would also like to address the issues at MDC, noting a death toll that has neared 50 people since 2020.

鈥淭hat's kind of hard to understand why we're not doing well for the people that we do incarcerate,鈥� he said. 

Yevoli said, while far apart, he thinks the city and county portions of District 5 鈥渁re all the same,鈥� for the most part. 

鈥淭he county is huge, and a lot of square miles, and we need to be able to balance it for everybody鈥� we need to be considerate of the rural nature versus the urban nature of the district and of the whole county itself,鈥� he said.
