If two-thirds of eligible voters showed up to vote in 2012, it was not a problem per se.

In every election, the number of voter turnout depends on a number of factors including, the candidates themselves, their political views and how it can impact the local community, the general interest of the voters in relation to the 'competitiveness' of the vote and the local demographics, since more educated people usually vote more often.

The national turnout for elections was 41.8% in 2012 which means New Mexico actually performed better than the national average.

However, it should be a cause of concern for both political parties if the trend begins downwards and less and less people eventually show up to vote.

This actually happened in New Mexico where the recent voter turn out in 2016 was approx. 50%, way down from two-thirds.

This is a problem since representation decreases and it becomes difficult to actually elect a government that works for the local people
