"Right now, I am going around and meeting with people," said Plame, a Democrat."I have a lot to learn and I would like another opportunity to serve my country." Plame became a national figure after her identity as a CIA operative was leaked by an official in President George W. Bush's administration in 2003 in an effort to discredit her then-husband Joe Wilson.
Plame says she'd be honored to represent the sprawling district, which covers all of northern New Mexico, parts of the Navajo Nation and a large portion of state's east side.
