New Mexico Election 2026: trail notes
Former U.S. Interior Secretary and New Mexico Democratic candidate for governor Deb Haaland appears on stage with a crowd of supporters at the state party's March 7, 2026, pre-primary convention. (Patrick Lohmann/Source NM) On Friday, New Mexico Speaker of the House Rep. Javier Martínez (D-Albuquerque) formally endorsed former U.S. Interior Secretary Deb Haaland in the race to be the state’s next governor. In a statement, Martínez harkened back to state lawmakers’ big-ticket accomplishments in the recent legislative session that ended in February — particularly health care reforms and universal child care — and said he wants a governor who has federal experience in this time of “federal overreach” under the second Trump administration. “New Mexico is rebuilding the village it takes to raise a child with every dollar we invest and every policy we pass,” Martínez said in a statement. “Right now, as federal overreach threatens to undermine this progress, we need a leader who will stand up and fight back while advancing big, bold solutions for New Mexico’s working families. Deb Haaland is the only candidate with the necessary executive and legislative experience to keep our state moving forward at this pivotal moment and I am proud to endorse her for governor.” Haaland, who represented New Mexico in the U.S. House of Representatives before leading the Department of the Interior, is set to face Bernalillo County District Attorney Sam Bregman in the June 2 Democratic primary election. At a March pre-primary convention to determine which candidates automatically make the ballot, Haaland earned the support of 74% of the state party’s delegates while Bregman earned the remaining 26%. “I am honored to earn his endorsement as I run to serve the people of our state,” Haaland said in a statement about Martínez’s endorsement. “I will partner with the Legislature to ensure people can afford their rent and groceries in the same month, can see a doctor when they’re sick, can live in safe communities, and have a quality public education.” Bregman’s campaign recently announced a plan aimed at affordability. Earlier in March, Bregman said that, if elected, he would use the state’s increased oil and gas revenue from the Iran war to issue $500 checks to New Mexicans with household incomes less than $200,000. Outreach campaign on the way for semi-open primaries A coalition of New Mexico nonprofits is launching an educational campaign next week aimed at the roughly 365,000 voters statewide — approximately 26% — who are not registered members of a political party. The June 2 primary marks the first time independent or “declined to state” voters can cast ballots in primary elections, thanks to Senate Bill 16, which the Legislature approved in 2025 to create semi-open primary elections. A new social media and mailer campaign, as well as YourVoteNM.com, seek to inform as many voters as possible about the change, said Sila Avcil, executive director of New Mexico Open Elections. The theme of the ad campaign, Avcil said, is “opening doors,” a metaphor for the new voter enfranchisement the new law enables. Members of the roughly 20-member coalition include Common Cause New Mexico, the League of Women Voters, the Asian Family Council and Planned Parenthood. Prior to 2022, only major party voters could participate in primary elections under New Mexico’s closed primary system. A law change that went into effect in 2022 allowed independent voters to participate in the Democratic or Republican primaries if they registered with one of those two parties before they cast their ballots, and changes governing same-day registration allowed them to do so on election day. Now, however, voters who don’t belong to a major party can simply request the ballot they wish to vote on. “This is the first time that they’re going to be able to participate in elections that they pay for without these added barriers,” Avcil told Source NM on Friday. According to the New Mexico Secretary of State’s Office, the share of “decline to state” voters has steadily increased since December 2024, when Avcil and other advocates launched a renewed effort to pressure the Legislature to enact semi-open primaries. In December 2024, just more than 330,000 New Mexicans were “decline to state” voters, comprising 23.5% of the state electorate, according to Secretary of State data. As of late February, that climbed to roughly 365,000, or 26% of the state’s registered voters. Candidates set for June primary ballot New Mexico election officials earlier this week finished their work to determine who made the cut for the June 2 primary ballot. U.S. Sen. Ben Ray Luján (D-N.M.) officially has a primary challenger in Farmington Democratic Socialist Matt Dodson. Republican Greg Cunningham, a former Marine and police officer, will face Albuquerque Republican Jose Orozco, a former drug enforcement officer, for the party’s nomination against incumbent U.S. Rep. Gabe Vasquez (D-N.M.) in the 2nd Congressional District. The Republican primary for governor is now a three-way race with Rio Rancho Mayor Gregg Hull, public relations professional Doug Turner and former cabinet secretary-turned cannabis CEO Duke Rodriguez. At a recent Albuquerque Journal town hall event, Rodriguez dismissed concerns over whether he is legally allowed to run for governor as he owns houses in Arizona and New Mexico. State Sen. David Gallegos (R-Eunice) will face Manuel “Manny” Lardizabal and A. Blair Dunn, an attorney and former Libertarian candidate for state attorney general, in the primary for lieutenant governor. Dems oppose federal election bill Two Democrats facing off in the primary race for Secretary of State condemned a federal bill that would require voters to show photo IDs at polling places. The lone Republican Secretary of State candidate, meanwhile, said the measure has its pros and cons. The U.S. House in February passed the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act — the SAVE Act, for short. The legislation faces debate in the coming weeks in the U.S. Senate. US Senate turns down photo ID requirement for voting, slammed by Dems as ‘theatrics’ If approved, it would require voters to show proof of citizenship documents to cast ballots in federal races and to show photo IDs at polling places. It would also ban universal mail-in voting, with exceptions for illness, disabilities, military service or travel. New Mexico Democratic U.S. Senators Martin Heinrich and Ben Ray Luján have said the bill would unnecessarily cause voter suppression and voted against the bill in its first procedural vote in the Senate. Doña Ana County Clerk Amanda López Askin and Santa Fe County Clerk Katharine Clark, told Source NM in recent interviews the law would disenfranchise voters, particularly married women, tribal voters and elderly or rural voters who plan to vote by mail. López Askin said that requirements for using a passport or birth certificate and requiring in-person registration would be unnecessarily burdensome and said cases of voter fraud are exceedingly rare. “This is, again, creating a solution to a problem that doesn’t exist. Voter fraud nationally is nearly non-existent,” she said. “My frustration is people think government ID will be a concrete, absolute way of identifying yourself, but people who think it is so easy have not dealt with challenges.” Requiring proof of citizenship documents to register would effectively end online voter registration for most people and requiring a passport as one of the only options to register is akin to a poll tax, Clark said. “A lot of things people point to using photo ID to do — buying cigarettes for example — that’s not a constitutional right,” Clark said. “Voting is a constitutional right and we should ensure there are not boundaries based on your income level.” Republican candidate Ramona Goolsby told Source NM she has qualms with several key provisions of the SAVE ACT, such as the requirements to register with certain documents and the absentee voting ban. However, she said she “agreed with some measures in the bill,” particularly requirements to show voter ID at the polls. “I don’t think that it is necessarily a danger to democracy,” she said.
