Pre-18 voter registration in

By Mail: ID Requirements

You must provide your New Mexico driver's license or state ID number. If you don't have one, you can use the last four digits of your Social Security number. This registration card containing the last four digits of your Social Security number will become part of the permanent voter registration records of your locality, which are open to inspection by the public in the office of the county clerk. However, the last four digits of your Social Security number and date of birth will remain confidential and will not be disclosed to the public. Computerized listings of limited voter registration information (without Social Security number or birth date) are available to the general public, and are furnished upon request to incumbent election officeholders, candidates, political parties, courts, and non‐profit organizations promoting voter participation and registration, for political purposes only (Sec.1-5-19B, NMSA 1978).
