New Mexico Primary Results

Based upon the analysis of the vote, Edison projects Joe Biden will win the New Mexico Democratic primary.

After lobbying to have an entirely mail-in election, New Mexico had the ask overturned in the state Supreme Court. Election officials, including the Secretary of State’s office, encouraged voters to cast their ballots by mail. Limited in-person voting sites were open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. Mountain Time on election day. There are 34 delegates up for grabs for Democrats and 22 for Republicans.

State significance

New Mexico is seen as a presidential battleground by some, with a number of close House primaries on the calendar. Hillary Clinton narrowly won the Democratic primary in 2016, with just under 52% of the vote.
