Former secretary of state Rebecca Vigil-Giron had enough valid signatures to be on the ballot, a judge ruled. 

(And thanks here to the AP's Deborah Baker, who sat through the 5.5-hour hearing -- not an easy task)

The ruling means the Democratic primary in the state's 1st Congressional District is a four-way affair. The candidates are Vigil-Giron; former Department of Health secretary Michele Lujan Grisham, whose campaign had worked to toss Vigil-Giron from the ballot; former Albuquerque city councilor Martin Heinrich and Duke City lawyer Robert Pidcock.

The Republicans in the race, you remember, are Bernalillo County Sheriff Darren White and State Sen. Joe Carraro.
All are working to replace U.S. Rep. Heather Wilson, who is running for the U.S. Senate.

While that's settled, there's another question brewing for Congressional candidates: who raised how much. Today's the day the FEC makes public those amounts, so stay tuned.
