新墨西哥州初选：独立选民在新的半开放制度下可以投票
Read, Watch or Listen
Santa Fe — Voters across New Mexico went to the polls Tuesday, June 2, for the state's primary election, with polls open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. and absentee ballots due by 7 p.m. The Secretary of State reported 181,934 early and absentee ballots cast before the end of early voting, including 18,402 independent voters under the new semi-open system. The early totals show independent voters could request major-party ballots without changing registration, and roughly 77% of independents selecting a party ballot chose Democratic ballots through Monday. Simultaneous primaries in California, Montana and South Dakota featured crowded fields, retirements and intra-party contests that will determine nominee lineups and influence general-election strategies in the coming months.

政治党派、现任者阵营的竞选活动和资金充裕的候选人，受益于早期的高投票率和明确的选票规则，这有助于党派和竞选活动识别支持者的偏好，并为有争议的大选对决分配资源。
一些无党派和少数党选民因初选规则和提交截止日期的变更而感到困惑，而拥挤的候选人群体则有稀释个人竞争者支持并使选民选择复杂化的风险。
