2008 U.S. Senate election{{Main|2008 United States Senate election in New Mexico}}On October 16, 2007, Pearce announced he would run for the Republican nomination to replace Pete Domenici in the U.S. Senate. Fellow Republican Representative Heather Wilson had previously declared her candidacy in that race.[27] In late October 2007, Pearce made 130,000 automated phone calls to justify his opposition to the State Children's Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) bill that would have provided health benefit to children, which the Wilson campaign claimed "Pearce violated House ethics by urging those he called to contact him through his official, non-campaign phone number or check out his official, non-campaign Web site."[28][29] In March 2008, Pearce garnered 55% of the vote at the Republican pre-primary nominating convention.[30] He narrowly won the June 3, 2008 Republican primary.
