Summary

The measure changes New Mexico’s election code so a voter may sign more than one petition for the same office, within limits, and may do so even if they are unaffiliated during a primary. It also requires the secretary of state to create a secure internet system for collecting electronic signatures. The changes affect candidates, parties and voters by altering how petition signatures are counted and verified.
