Am I eligible to register to vote?
To register to vote, you must be:

• A U.S. citizen;
• A New Mexico resident;
• At least 18 years old.

How can I verify whether or not I am registered?
Once your county clerk successfully processes your voter registration application, whether received by mail or using the online voter registration system, you will receive confirmation by mail from the county clerk.

Additionally, you may use My Registration Information to look up your current voter registration status and information.

When can I register?
If you are qualified, you may submit an application for voter registration at any time, however, registration closes at 5:00 p.m. Mountain time on the twenty-eighth day immediately preceding any election.

What happens if I register to vote after registration closes (within 28 days of an election)?
If you register to vote after registration has closed, the county clerk will still accept your voter registration application but it will not be processed until the Monday following the election.

If you have been convicted of a felony, you can register to vote once you have completed the court-ordered sentence of imprisonment, including any term of parole or probation for the conviction. This provision includes federal, state and out-of-state convictions.
