Repeal Separate Election Requirement for School Election Dates Amendment

New Mexico · November 3, 2026

Repeal the constitutional provision requiring that school elections be held at different times from partisan elections

A yes vote means School elections can be held on the same day as partisan elections instead of being required to happen separately.
A no vote means School elections must continue to be held on different days than partisan elections.
Simple explanation
Right now, your state requires school board elections to happen on completely separate days from elections where you vote for president, governors, and other political offices. This measure would let school elections happen on the same day as those other elections, kind of like combining two separate shopping trips into one.
