Jan 17 (Reuters) - A failed Republican candidate in New Mexico who contracted gunmen to attack the homes of Democratic officials told assailants to shoot earlier in the evening and aim lower to increase the odds of injury or death, according to police records.
Solomon Peña, a defeated candidate for the state House of Representatives, is accused of masterminding the Albuquerque attacks on two county commissioners and two state legislators after visiting their homes to dispute his November election loss, police said.
Peña, described as a "right wing radical election denier" by Albuquerque Mayor Tim Keller, was arrested on Monday.
