Impact of redistricting

See also: Redistricting in New Mexico

The New Mexico Legislature is responsible for redistricting state offices, including state legislative and congressional districts.

According to the U.S. Census Bureau, New Mexico's population increased from 1.82 million in 2000 to 2.06 million in 2010. Population growth over the decade was concentrated geographically along the Rio Grande, including the cities of Santa Fe, Albuquerque, and Las Cruces. The eastern part of the state experienced little population growth.

The legislature passed new maps on September 23, 2011; Gov. Susana Martinez (R) vetoed both Democratic-controlled chambers' maps on October 7. A state court drew a new House map that was struck down by the New Mexico Supreme Court. The state supreme court instructed the lower court to draw new maps that kept communities of interest intact, minimized population deviation between districts, reduced partisan advantage, and included a Hispanic majority-minority district in House District 67. The trial court issued the final redistricting plan on February 7, 2012. New Mexico Politics said, "While the new map isn’t as GOP leaning as the map Judge James Hall initially approved, it’s much better for Republicans than the plan the Democratic-controlled Legislature approved."

Qualifications

Article 4, Section 3 of the New Mexico Constitution states: Senators shall not be less than twenty-five years of age and representatives not less than twenty-one years of age at the time of their election. If any senator or representative permanently removes his residence from or maintains :No Residence in the district from which he was elected, then he shall be deemed to have resigned and his successor shall be selected as provided in Section 4 of this article. No person shall be eligible to serve in the legislature who, at the time of qualifying, holds any office of trust or profit with the state, county or national governments, except notaries public and officers of the militia who receive no salary.
