Observe New Mexico Elections

Observe New Mexico Elections (ONME) is a nonpartisan effort to strengthen trust and transparency in state elections. Led by New Mexicans and supported by The Carter Center, ONME trains voters from all 33 counties to observe electoral procedures, report impartially, and provide timely public information. Their standardized reports create a data-driven assessment of election conduct, helping reassure voters that New Mexico’s elections are fair and accurate.

The mission of Observe New Mexico Elections is to increase transparency and trust in New Mexico’s elections by training and deploying nonpartisan election observers throughout the state. Observers will report on how election laws and procedures are followed, representing all voters without interfering in the electoral process. Findings from their observations will be compiled to assess the overall quality of elections in New Mexico.
