"Official" History

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.

SENATE JOINT RESOLUTION 11

57th legislature - STATE OF NEW MEXICO - first session, 2025

INTRODUCED BY

Linda M. Trujillo and Gail Armstrong and David M. Gallegos

 

 

 

 

 

A JOINT RESOLUTION

PROPOSING TO AMEND ARTICLE 7, SECTION 1 OF THE CONSTITUTION OF NEW MEXICO TO PERMIT SCHOOL ELECTIONS TO BE HELD AT THE SAME TIME AS PARTISAN ELECTIONS.

 

BE IT RESOLVED BY THE LEGISLATURE OF THE STATE OF NEW MEXICO:

     SECTION 1. It is proposed to amend Article 7, Section 1 of the constitution of New Mexico to read:

          "A. Every person who is a qualified elector pursuant to the constitution and laws of the United States and a citizen thereof shall be qualified to vote in all elections in New Mexico, subject to residency and registration requirements provided by law, except as restricted by statute either by reason of criminal conviction for a felony or by reason of mental incapacity, being limited only to those persons who are unable to mark their ballot and who are concurrently also unable to communicate their voting preference. The legislature may enact laws providing for absentee voting by qualified electors. [All school elections shall be held at different times from partisan elections.]

          B. The legislature shall have the power to require the registration of the qualified electors as a requisite for voting and shall regulate the manner, time and places of voting. The legislature shall enact such laws as will secure the secrecy of the ballot and the purity of elections and guard against the abuse of elective franchise. Not more than two members of the board of registration and not more than two judges of election shall belong to the same political party at the time of their appointment."

     SECTION 2. The amendment proposed by this resolution

shall be submitted to the people for their approval or

rejection at the next general election or at any special

election prior to that date that may be called for that

purpose.
