Statewide elections take place on Nov. 4 and each year many voters rely on the guides created by the League of Women Voters of New Mexico. The organization is non-partisan, which means it doesn’t support or oppose any candidate or political party.

Elections take place Nov. 4 and early voting is underway. Saturday Nov. 1 is the last day to vote early. Voters around the state are deciding on candidates for mayors, city councils, county commissions, and school boards as well as bonds.

Early in-person voting in Santa Fe County continues through Nov. 1. Polling sites will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Nov. 4.
