This is the official nmlegis action history. I'm doing my best to translate the LONG/WEIRD-STRING to something less gibberishy. And before you ask, no, the "Legis Day" number has no mapping to the real world.

C. The governor may in like manner approve or disapprove any part or parts, item or items, of any bill appropriating money, and such parts or items approved shall become a law, and such as are disapproved shall be void unless passed over [his] the governor's veto [as herein provided].
D. Any veto of a bill in whole or in part by the governor shall include an explanation for the veto. The explanation for the veto shall be returned with the bill to the house in which the bill originated or deposited with the bill with the secretary of state, as herein provided."
