Board approves precinct-boundary adjustments to meet statutory thresholds
Summary
Under state election-code requirements, the board adopted resolution 252632 to adjust precinct boundaries in Farmington and Aztec where precincts exceeded 750 votes in the 2024 general election; certified maps will be sent to the Secretary of State and major party chairs.
County Clerk Alyssa Cleland briefed the board on statutory obligations to divide or adjust precinct boundaries when a precinct's vote tally exceeds 750 votes based on the two most recent general elections (NMSA §1-3-1 and §1-3-5). Cleland said the changes affect precincts in Farmington and Aztec (listed by precinct numbers in attached maps) and that adjustments cannot cross other district lines.
The board adopted Resolution 252632; staff will send a certified copy to the Secretary of State for compliance review, furnish copies to major-party chairs and publish the resolution in the Tri-City Record.
Cleland emphasized this action responds to state election-code requirements and affects precincts 3038, 3039, 3050, 3057, 3060, 3061, 3067, 3069, 3103 and 3107 in the Farmington/Azcet areas.
