Though she has not held public office before, Ms. Trujillo gained a modest following on her Facebook page, which is largely filled with pledges to rein in voting. In one livestream, Ms. Trujillo called for counties to hand-count every ballot, enact stricter voter identification requirements and limit absentee voting.
