New Mexico has seen some of the highest turnover among local election administrators in the country in recent years, according to a new study. But new funding approved in this year’s legislative session could help stem the tide.

Until now, New Mexico voters who wanted to cast an absentee ballot had to request one for each election. That has now changed with the creation of a permanent absentee voter list.

While local elections can get a boost on participation when there’s a key office or issue on the ballot, they don’t see near the turnout that statewide and national contests do. However, even without a mayor up for election, Santa Fe County residents came out in large numbers Tuesday. That was not the case for the state’s largest county.
