Heinrich blames staff after social media gaffe

On Sunday, Martin Heinrich posted a photo of an “Elk” on social media.

The problem: The photo was actually a Bighorn Sheep.

After getting mocked on social media, the Senator deleted the post and put out another post blaming his staff for the mistake.

“Martin Heinrich is not ready for prime time.” — NRSC Spokeswoman Maggie Abboud
