Paper Summary:

This paper introduces, discusses, and analyzes the demographic model of the State of New Mexico. Specifically it discusses the political and demographic breakdown of the state, including recent election history of the state.

From the Paper:

"The current party breakdown of the state legislature is House: 42 Democrats and 28 Republicans, and the Senate: 24 Democrats and 18 Republicans (Barone, 2006, p. 1117). The Democratic majorities in the House and Senate are led by Governor Bill Richardson, also a Democrat, who was reelected in 2007. The Federal Congressional delegation includes Senior Senator Pete Domenici, a Republican, who has served six terms in Congress and is up for reelection in Fall 2008, (but will not seek reelection), and Junior Senator Jeff Bingamen, a Democrat in his 4th term, reelected in 2006. Representatives include 1st District Heather Wilson, a Republican, in her 6th full term. She is up for reelection in Fall 2008, but she attempted to run for Pete Domenici's Senate seat, and Domenici is not seeking reelection this year, but lost in the primary election to Representative Steve Pearce (Kicinich and Blake, 2007). The 2nd District Representative is Steve Pearce, a Republican, in his 4th term and up for reelection in Fall 2008 (he gained the Republican spot for the Congressional Senate election seat, and so his seat will be open), and the 3rd District, Tom Udall, in his 5th term and up for reelection in Fall 2008. (He is running unopposed as the Democratic candidate for Domenici's Senate seat, and so his seat will also be open). That means that all three Representative seats will go to new candidates in Fall 2008, since all three Representatives are running for another office."
