I’m just curious, but as a person that lives outside of ALB, Santa Fe, and Cruses, is there a reason for anyone else in the state to vote?

It feels to me that NM politics are strongly centered on those three cities. And the rest of us are on the outside looking in. Just hoping for some crumbs.

A word of encouragement: no matter where you live, the local elections in your town have a vastly greater impact on your day-to-day than what happens at the state-level. Your vote truly matters and anyone who would try to convince you otherwise is either lying to you for their benefit or has been lied to by someone else for theirs. If there is a cause or an issue you care about, talk to the people around you, find local candidates that align with you. The smaller your town, the more effective your vote becomes there.
