New Mexico: A Red State in the Making

NEW MEXICO: A RED STATE IN THE MAKING?

Democrats' policy failures are paving the way for voter defection in New Mexico.

Robert T. Wood  |   May 28, 2021

New Mexico is often thought of by national prognosticators and DNC operatives as a blue state, giving Dems a clear advantage in the presidential election. The most recent Presidential contest in which New Mexico voted for a Republican was in 2004, which was also the most recent Republican Presidential popular vote victory.

That pattern may not hold: in 2016, three other “blue states” were won by successful Republican Presidential candidate Donald J. Trump: Michigan, Wisconsin, and Pennsylvania. In 2020, New Mexico trended towards the Republicans relative to 2018, with GOP Senate nominee Mark Ronchetti getting a closer-than-expected 45.6% in the race against Democratic winner Ben Ray Lujan. This contest featured the highest percentage won by a Republican Senate nominee in New Mexico since 2002, back when incumbent Senator Pete Domenici won reelection by double digits.

A true test of the Democratic assumption will be the upcoming special election for New Mexico’s 1st Congressional District, between Republican Mark Moores and Democrat Melanie Stansbury, this June 1st. The vacancy in the district occurred when the incumbent, Democratic Congresswoman Deb Haaland, was appointed and confirmed as the Secretary of the Interior in the Biden administration. Moores’ campaign is focusing on Albuquerque’s surging violent crime rate. Could there be other reasons as to why the Land of Enchantment may turn red?  .  .  .

New Mexico has gone from having one of the best governors in the country (Susana Martinez) to now having one of the worst (Michelle Grisham).  Since Biden cut back on oil & gas exploration, New Mexico has suffered.

Title and presumption:
"NEW MEXICO: A RED STATE IN THE MAKING?"

Please.
New Mexico is the SECOND state (after California) in which whites have slipped into the minority.

It's gone blue and it's NOT going to be changing back for a long time, if ever.
Not until whites are the majority there again.
When will that be?
