* Not all judges stand for retention in every election. Supreme Court justices and NM Court of Appeals judges stand for retention when their staggered terms expire. In 2021, the New Mexico Legislature passed a law changing the terms of evaluation for District Court and Metropolitan Court judges. For information on these changes, see the IMPORTANT NOTICE TO VOTERS on the home page of this website.
