Jul 28, 2022

End Citizens United // Let America Vote today endorsed New Mexico Secretary of State Maggie Toulouse Oliver for re-election.

“Secretary Toulouse Oliver has spent her time in office ensuring every New Mexican can make their voice heard at the ballot box. She stood up to self-serving politicians trying to sabotage New Mexico’s elections this year. Her commitment to protecting the freedom to vote has been remarkable. She’s also implemented more transparent campaign finance reporting, so New Mexicans know who is contributing to their politicians. We need her in office to ensure working families can continue to make their voices heard on the issues that matter most to them,” said End Citizens United // Let America Vote President Tiffany Muller.

“Throughout my career, I’ve worked hard to expand access to the ballot box and make certain we all have the freedom to vote. It’s vital that every New Mexican can have their voice heard, so we can make progress on issues important to our communities. That’s why I’m thrilled to be endorsed by End Citizens United and Let America Vote, so I can keep fighting to build public trust and make New Mexico’s government more responsive to the people,” said Secretary Maggie Toulouse Oliver.

Maggie Toulouse Oliver has been the New Mexico Secretary of State since 2016. As Secretary of State, she took important steps to ensure New Mexicans could vote absentee and by mail during the pandemic. She also has worked to increase transparency in New Mexico’s campaign finance system, so voters know who is funding their elections.

ECU // LAV is a leading anti-corruption and voting rights group. The grassroots-funded political action committee raised and spent $65.5 million in the 2020 election cycle to elect candidates fighting to limit the influence of big money in politics and protect the freedom to vote.
