Election Reforms in New Mexico

Advocacy Meetings for Election Day Registration

October 10th and 11th
Albuquerque and Santa Fe

Due to changes in the NM Election Reform Taskforce Meeting Schedule, we will be hosting a series of meetings on the issue of Election Day Registration (EDR) that will be facilitated by Ludovic Blain of Demos (a non-profit think tank devoted to national election process reforms). Elected Officials, Advocacy Groups, Election Officials, Political Science Professors and Students, and concerned citizens are invited to attend any of the meetings listed below. Although not required, please RSVP as to which meeting you may attend so we can better accommodate your needs for these meetings. To arrange for a special meeting time or location, contact Desi Brown as soon as possible. Please note that evening meeting locations are dependent on whether the Legislature is still in special session or not. We look forward to meeting with you on this issue.

Thank you,

Desi Brown
Intern for State Senator Jerry Ortiz y Pino
