Albuquerque, New Mexico- Now that the New Mexico primary election is over, here is Abortion Free New Mexico’s analysis of the candidates election results who signed our pro-life pledge and will be on the November 8th general election ballot. These candidates have made a firm commitment to stand for life which has energized the pro-life community. All across the state the primary election results held on June 7, 2022 revealed that republicans are getting more engaged and many of the races in the upcoming general election on November 8, 2022 are winnable (when the republican primary voter turnout is compared with their democrat opponents).

Abortion Free New Mexico’s Pro-Life Pledge states:
“I pledge to defend life from conception to natural death. In making and keeping this pledge, I am committed to ending all abortion and all assisted suicide in the state of New Mexico.”
Tara Shaver of Abortion Free New Mexico issued the following statement,
“It is encouraging to have so many republican voters rise up to support pro-life candidates and to see that in several of these races pro-life pledge signers have outright leads or are in a head to head race with their democrat opponents.
The pro-abortion community wants nothing more than to expand abortion in New Mexico. Abortionists from across the nation have their sights set on our state for abortion tourism that will bring big profits to their businesses. We stand with everyday New Mexicans who don’t want our state to be known as the late term abortion capital of the nation and we will work to elect new leaders who stand strong for our children in the womb. Abortion on demand is not a New Mexican value and is not healthcare for women.”
Together we can make a difference and change the direction of New Mexico.
