There are a total of three Republicans in Clinton/Lujan Grisham seats, while just one Democrat, state Sen. John Arthur Smith, represents a Trump/Pearce constituency. Smith, though, won’t be representing this seat much longer, since he was one of five conservative Senate Democrats to lose renomination last month.
Each party holds one of the two Trump/Lujan Grisham. The Democrat, state Sen. Clemente Sanchez, was another conservative who lost in June, while Republican incumbent Gary Baca was renominated without any opposition.
We’ll turn to the House, which is up every two years and where Democrats hold a 46-24 majority. Clinton took 45 seats to Trump’s 25, and just like in the upper chamber, Lujan Grisham carried all the Clinton districts plus an additional two. Both Trump/Lujan Grisham seats are in GOP hands, while one Democrat represents a Trump/Pearce constituency.
Clinton and Lujan Grisham also carried the same two congressional seats, while Trump and Pearce took the 2nd District. However, while Pearce was the 2nd District’s congressman when he ran for governor, his 53-47 victory there was a bit weaker than Trump’s 50-40 showing two years before. That underperformance on his home turf may have had serious implications for Pearce’s party in 2018, since Democrat Xochitl Torres Small won the seat 51-49.
Finally, we’ll take a look at the contest for U.S. Senate. Democratic incumbent Martin Heinrich beat Republican Mich Rich 54-31, while Johnson, who was once again running as a Libertarian, took 15% statewide. Heinrich beat Rich in 33 of the 42 Senate seats and 56 of the 70 House districts, and he even carried all three U.S. House seats. Johnson didn’t end up winning a single district on any of these maps, though he beat Rich for second in four Senate seats and 10 House districts.
