Career
[edit]Jeff's reputation for voting with Republicans earned her a primary challenge in 2012.[2] In 2014, Conservation Voters New Mexico was successful in having Jeff removed from the Democratic primary election ballot for reelection.[3]
On January 12, 2018, Jeff said she would register as a Libertarian and run for Secretary of State of New Mexico.[4] On August 24, 2018, Jeff dropped out of the race, citing “unforeseen personal obligations."[5]
Jeff was eliminated in the primaries of the 2022 Navajo Nation presidential election.[6]
