Reading the 2024 result in New Mexico
New Mexico backed Harris (Democratic) in the 2024 presidential election, casting 5 electoral votes for the ticket. The presidency went elsewhere: Donald Trump (Republican) won nationally, while New Mexico had backed a different ticket.
New Mexico stayed in the Democratic column for the 5th straight cycle, extending a run that began in 2008. The region divided — Colorado joined New Mexico for the Democratic ticket, while Arizona, Utah, Oklahoma, and Texas did not. Over its 29 recorded presidential cycles, New Mexico has backed the Democratic party more than any other — 17 times in all. The vote fell within the Modern Polarization — Close elections in a divided country.
Nationally, Donald Trump finished with 312 of the 538 electoral votes to Kamala Harris's 226. Donald Trump led the national popular vote with 49.8% of the ballots cast.
