New Mexico could be poised to make a big splash in the 2028 Democratic presidential race, potentially becoming one of the first states to hold its primary — right after South Carolina, Nevada, and New Hampshire. The move, backed by a DNC committee, aims to amplify the voices of the state’s large Hispanic and Native American communities, ensuring their influence is felt early in the nomination process.
