Two New Mexico Representatives have introduced HJR 12, to require semi-closed primaries. Currently New Mexico has closed primaries. The proposed constitutional amendment would provide that independent voters be allowed to vote in partisan primaries. The authors are Representative Moe Maestas (D-Albuquerque) and Stephanie Garcia Richard (D-Los Alamos). If the legislature passes it, then the voters would be asked to decide whether it should become part of the State Constitution. Thanks to Carol Miller for this news.
