SANTA FE, New Mexico (Reuters) - A man facing extortion charges and forbidden from entering City Hall or speaking with city employees won the election for mayor in the town of Sunland Park, New Mexico.
Daniel Salinas was arrested in late February for extortion, New Mexico State Police spokesman Robert McDonald said.
Salinas was accused of trying to blackmail a mayoral opponent, Gerardo Hernandez, to drop out of the race with a tape showing Hernandez receiving a lap dance from a topless stripper, McDonald said.
