About Gabe Vasquez for Congress
New Mexico’s second congressional district is once again a top frontline district and will be key to winning back the House in November of 2026.
Congressman Gabe Vasquez is the only Democrat to win New Mexico’s second congressional district two consecutive cycles and one of a few Democrats that outperformed Donald Trump in 2024. NM-02 spans the bottom half of New Mexico, including 180 miles of border, and reaches up to southern and western regions of Albuquerque. The district is vast, comparable to the entire state of Pennsylvania, with many conservative-leaning voters. The fight for NM-02 is a microcosm of all the issues Democrats are struggling with on the national stage– from winning back Latino voters to creating meaningful rural engagement programs.
The Gabe Vasquez for Congress team is a group of high-energy and seasoned political operatives relentlessly focused on delivering a historic third win in NM-02.
