  "summary": "New Mexico voters will be electing leaders for federal, state, and other offices on Tuesday, according to the Associated Press (AP) Decision Team. The election will cover races for U.S. Senate, governor, U.S. House, attorney general, secretary of state, statewide ballot measures, state Senate, state House, state auditor, land commissioner, and state treasurer. Polls close at 7 p.m. local time, which is 9 p.m. ET. The AP will provide vote results and declare winners in these races. The 2022 governor race in New Mexico saw about 712,000 votes cast, with 63% of those votes being cast early or by absentee ballot. New Mexico's 33 counties have varying release times for different types of vote results, with about half expected to release mail and early in-person voting results in the first vote update of the night. The AP does not make projections and will declare a winner only when it's determined there is no scenario that would allow a trailing candidate to close the gap.",
