NEW MEXICO (KRQE) – There are only five more days before the registration deadline to vote in New Mexico’s primary elections.

County clerks are reminding people to check their voter registration status. According to state and federal law, the clerk’s office is required to purge voters from the registration rolls every two years.

If you’ve moved, your mail was returned undeliverable, or if the state has been notified that a voter no longer lives at your residence, you might want to check your status.

The deadline to register is May 10.
