Democrats make life better
Democrats work hard to provide a healthier, stronger, “more perfect” union. Democrats work to ensure
- Economic opportunity and security for all Americans
- Government that supports the US Constitution and the Rule of Law
- Fairness and justice for all Americans
- Affordable healthcare
- Clean air and abundant water–no handing over our precious resources to greedy data centers
Learn how Democrats are helping New Mexico, including Sandoval County, while the corrupt Republican Party is trying to pillage our economy, destroy the Constitution, ruin the environment, and impose authoritarian control over the land of free.
Affordability
The Republicans’ stunning incompetence and bald-face corruption are rapidly destroying the American standard of living. Prices are increasing in every important sector:
- Housing
- Healthcare
- Price of gas
This is Republican inflation. Every cent of current inflation is directly due to
- Republican tariffs
- Republican tax breaks for billionaires
- Republican corruption, including accepting bribes from foreign nations
- Republican shredding of safety-net programs, like Affordable Healthcare
- The pointless, illegal, forever war Republicans are waging against Iran
Learn how New Mexico Democrats are working hard to repair Republican economic damage, help all New Mexicans and their families, and shield the most vulnerable among us from Republican inflicted devastation.

Voters with disabilities will find support and accommodation at every voting site. Visit the Secretary of State’s site for helpful videos and more detailed information like this :
“All polling locations are equipped with accessible voting equipment that is equipped for special accommodations for hearing, visual, physical, and other disabilities. Accessible voting equipment provides the opportunity to independently vote a ballot in complete privacy. This terminal marks the voter’s selections on paper that becomes their ballot. Voters can select their choices using a touch screen, headphones, and other types of equipment available to assist voters in making their selections. The completed ballot is then fed into a tabulator, which scans and records the votes.
In New Mexico, blind and visually impaired voters may also request an electronically fillable ballot to vote from the privacy of their own homes via an absentee ballot.”
