On October 25, 2025, the Silver City Daily Press held the candidate forum for the Silver City mayor for the election on November 4, 2025. It took place at the WNMU Besse Forward Global Resource center. The forum had Gaudalupe Cano, Simon Wheaton-Smith, Dale Lane and Levi Emmett Timmons facing off.
Nick Seibel, Silver City Daily Press publisher, moderated the forum. The candidates received questions from the audience, Facebook, and the Press writer Juno Ogle. Each would answer the same question and had two minutes.
Siebel said he did not remember having this many candidates for mayor and such an exciting race. He had received a lot of questions from the audience and would be asking as many of them as he could. The questions had to apply to all candidates.

Grant County, New Mexico – Former Western New Mexico University President, Dr. Joseph Shepard, today announced that he has filed a lawsuit in Grant County, New Mexico, seeking vindication and justice for himself and accountability for all New Mexicans. The lawsuit brought against Western New Mexico University under the New Mexico Whistleblower Protection Act for its retaliation against him for blowing the whistle on the fraudulent appropriation of $1,000,000 and against the several prominent Democrats that engaged in a vendetta to use their political power to falsely destroy his reputation as part of their effort to conceal the malfeasance.
