Template:Infobox elections by state Following is a table of United States presidential elections in New Mexico, ordered by year. Since its admission to statehood in 1912, New Mexico has participated in every U.S. presidential election. Across its history, Mew Mexico has only missed picking the winner of the nationwide popular vote once, in 1976. New Mexico voted for the same candidate as Nevada in all of its elections except for 2000, when Nevada voted for Bush and New Mexico voted for Gore.


Winners of the state are in bold. The shading refers to the state winner, and not the national winner.
