He's Giving it Another Shot

Back in January of 2020, FTVLive told you that KRQE (Albuquerque) Weather Anchor Mark Ronchetti left his TV job to make a run for U.S. Senate in New Mexico.

He lost and then returned to his job at the station.

Well, now he has left his TV job yet again and this time he is going to try and run for Governor of New Mexico.

At this point, he has not announced that he is officially running, but he has left KRQE and that announcement is coming at any moment.

“We have not made a final decision yet,” Ronchetti said Friday in a statement.

“Krysty and I will continue to talk to our girls and pray about the direction we’re going to head in next,” he added, referring to his wife and two young daughters. “We hope to have a final decision by next week.”

Clearly, this guy wants to do something besides TV news.

It will be interesting if he loses again, will KRQE’s owner Nexstar let him return to the station yet again?

Stay tuned….
