Elections in New Mexico

A primary election on June 5, 2018 determined which candidates appear on the November 6 general election ballot. Primary election results can be obtained from the New Mexico Secretary of State's website.[1]

In the 2016 state House elections, Democrats flipped 5 seats from Republican hands and took control of the House by increasing their seats from 33 to 38. This put Democrats in effective control of the New Mexico House of Representatives.

To claim control of the chamber from Democrats, the Republicans would need to net 4 House seats. However, in the elections, the Democrats made a net gain of 9 seats, increasing their seats from 38 to 47.

Notes

  2. After winning the primary election, Schmedes was appointed to fill the vacated seat; therefore, he is running as the incumbent in the general election, but was not an incumbent during the primary.

  4. Running with party affiliation as "decline-to-state."
