New NM polling: Trump, Domenici within single digits of beating Dems

As the U.S. Presidential Election approaches, New Mexico is emerging as a critical battleground state, with new polling data shedding light on both the presidential and U.S. Senate races. Redfield & Wilton Strategies, in collaboration with The Telegraph, recently included New Mexico in its Swing State Tracker Poll, highlighting its growing significance in the national political landscape.

In the presidential race, the latest poll between July 31 and August 3 reveals that Kamala Harris holds a seven-point lead over 45th President Donald Trump in New Mexico, with Harris garnering 44% of the vote compared to Trump’s 37%. This lead suggests that New Mexico, which has traditionally leaned Democrat in recent elections, may be in contention in November. Additionally, Robert F. Kennedy Jr., running as an independent candidate, polls at 8% in New Mexico, the highest support he has received among the swing states surveyed. If Kennedy dropped out and endorsed Trump, that would give Trump an even better advantage over Harris. 

Beyond the presidential race, the U.S. Senate race in New Mexico is also drawing significant attention. Incumbent Democratic Senator Martin Heinrich is currently leading his Republican challenger, Nella Domenici, by six points, with Heinrich securing 40% of the vote to Domenici’s 34%. Heinrich’s support falls four points short of Harris’ performance in the state. Domenici, on the other hand, trails Trump by three points, indicating that while she benefits from the Republican base, she has not yet matched Trump’s level of support.

Economic concerns are at the forefront for New Mexico voters, with 55% reporting that their financial situation has worsened over the past year—the highest percentage among the swing states polled. This economic anxiety is likely to play a crucial role in shaping voter preferences in both the presidential and Senate races. Despite these challenges, a plurality of New Mexicans remains cautiously optimistic about the future, with 46% expecting their financial situation to improve in the coming year.

On key issues, New Mexico voters display a nuanced trust in the candidates. Kamala Harris is favored over Donald Trump on healthcare, the environment, and the war in Ukraine, while Trump is trusted more on economic issues, immigration, and national defense. In the Senate race, Domenici could gain traction on economic and immigration concerns.

  1. Question: Does Nella still have close ties to any of the Chinese business that she worked while with the investment corporation? This is a very important question for me.
    Anyone brave enough to answer honestly?
    Or if anyone has a valid email address for Nella, I will be happy to ask and post the response for you all.

    1. This chyna business concerns me as well! I’ve seen many people request her e-mail address. Not getting any answers either!

      There you go!

      You made it way too simple for them tho…. you’ve provided click on links!

      If the 55% haven’t figured out the DNC political party of NM is responsible for the financial issue not getting any better…I’m pretty sure they are not intelligent enough to clink on your links and see for themselves.

      Just sayin…

      Not trying to be mean… just pointing it out…

      Somehow…common sense and the other opposing political party has not been able to break the stupidity of the NM DNC and it’s Democrat or dead voters.

      When,(&if), they do however…I’m looking forward towards a better and brighter future with less infacidial maniacs involved in the State Gooberment.

    Amazing… 55% say it’s gone to sh*t financially but this result says they will continue favoring the infacidial democrats…

    Amazing ignorant people… here’s a clue…it won’t get any better with what you got.

    1. They have been told Trump is to blame so they don’t have to think for themselves. One huge problem is that well over 50% of the state is either on welfare or has government jobs. They don’t want their gravy train coming to an end and the left tells them that’s what happens if any other party gets elected.

  3. Harris has stated that she would push to have one insurance provider. Your choice of providers would be eliminated. We have a shortage of doctors to begin with, a one party provider would be a nightmare for the caregivers as well as the patients.

    If Harris wins be prepared for more taxes, more government, more pork belly projects.I have heard her ads and they make me cringe. In order for the environment to be working, we need to demand that other nation be in compliance, which they are not.
    My biggest challenge is trying to understand why people/ voters can’t see through the verbiage that Harris spews. Harris had plenty of time to take care of the issues that she is now campaigning on.

    There are over 12 million illegals in our county, 80 thousand children are not accounted for, cartels from every corner of the globe committing crimes, rapes, murders, and we are concerned about the ad the Heinrich is running about Dominici and her past employer. Give me a break… Heinrich is a pain in my behind for his slimy ads. I guess it’s to be expected from the Democrats. Look what they did to Biden.

    1. I will NEVER give up. If you give up, you never were in the fight. I am on the front lines with other patriots volunteering and helping candidates get elected. We are fighting for NM and that is why it is in play, how do you think that happened…work. We love NM, our country, our churches and number one our kids.

  4. We have got to get the ones who have voted for Democrats all their lives to change to Republican or we are screwed.

  5. I don”t want to dash anyone’s hopes but if it is 44% to Trumps 37% he does not stand a chance. Plus, NM will cheat as much as PA to get her a win. To defeat a tyranny you have to fight with other things than votes when the tyrants control the polls. People: Be prepared to do the unthinkable to save our Republic from these tyrants.
