SUNLAND PARK, N.M. (KRQE) - Former Sunland Park mayoral candidate Daniel Salinas has been released from jail after a judge granted a motion erasing Salinas' remaining $200,000 bond.
A motion to delay his court case was also granted.
The former councilman was arrested last year over allegations of blackmail of his mayoral opponent , which allegedly involved a hired stripper, a lap dance and a hidden camera.
Conditions of his release include 24-hour electronic monitoring and a curfew.
Salinas has pleaded not guilty to multiple charges including extortion, bribery, fraud and illegal kickbacks.
He had been in the Doña Ana County Detention Center since his arrest nine months ago.
