Now that we’re headed towards the next big election, we wanted to get a better sense of what parts of New Mexico would be the most likely to back Donald Trump again.
Specifically, which cities have the highest number of conservative voters in the Land of Enchantment?
In order to do so, we turned our sites on measuring how each city in New Mexico with populations greater than 5,000 voted and contributed to political campaigns in the past several years. The cities with the highest percentage of voters who voted republican and gave the most to conservatives where named the most conservative cities in the state.
Here are the 10 most conservative places in New Mexico for 2019:
1. Hobbs
2. Lovington
3. Clovis
4. Carlsbad
5. Artesia
6. Ruidoso
7. Portales
8. Roswell
9. Tucumcari
10. Farmington
If you’re wondering, Taos is the most liberal city in New Mexico of all those we measured.
And to be clear, we didn’t form this list based on our own biases — we relied on the cold hard data. For more on how we ran the numbers, keep on reading. Then we’ll take a closer look at each of our top 10 most conservative cities in New Mexico.
