County Clerk Ellen White stated in a news release that primary elections in New Mexico are closed, and voters must be registered as a Democrat, Republican or Libertarian to vote at that time.
She also encouraged voters to verify whether they are a registered voter in the county, with a correct address of where they reside and a current mailing address.
