SANTA FE 鈥� While some parts of New Mexico's economy might be struggling, the state's political sector does not appear to be one of them.

Fundraising reports filed this week show candidate spending on New Mexico鈥檚 open race for governor has surged past $17 million as next week鈥檚 primary election nears 鈥� making it the most expensive primary race in state history.

Most of that spending has been on the Democratic side, where Deb Haaland and Sam Bregman have combined to spend more than $13 million on TV ads, mailers and campaign staffers in a contentious showdown for the party's nomination.

In contrast, the three Democrats running for governor in 2018 had spent about $6.9 million at a similar point in that year's election cycle 鈥� or slightly more than half the amount of this year's race featuring two candidates.

Haaland, a former congresswoman and U.S. Interior secretary, reported Thursday having spent more than $2 million during a recent three-week period. In all, she has now raised about $12.8 million in contributions and spent more than $10.8 million since launching her campaign in February 2025. Haaland has slightly more than $1.9 million left unspent in her campaign account.

"I am so proud of the grassroots movement we continue to build and grateful to the tens of thousands of New Mexicans donating to our campaign," Haaland said in a Friday statement.

"Regardless of who wins the GOP nomination, I'm ready to protect our state from Trump and ICE so that we can focus on what really matters 鈥� reducing crime, bettering education, and bringing down prices on everything from healthcare, to housing, to groceries," she added.

For his part, Bregman reported spending nearly $250,000 during the recent reporting period. He has received more than $4 million in donations and spent about $3.8 million since launching his campaign in April 2025, leaving him with roughly $295,000 in unspent campaign funds.

A campaign spokesman for the Bernalillo County district attorney said Friday that recent polling has shown the race tightening. A Journal Poll conducted last month showed Haaland with a strong lead in the contest.

"Campaigns aren't won on paper, they're won on the ground," said Bregman campaign spokeswoman Joanie Griffin.

"Sam's message is breaking through because voters are ready for strong leadership focused on safety, jobs and healthcare," she added. "We'll see the real results on Tuesday."

Bregman and Haaland have clashed in recent weeks over debates and doxing allegations, with Bregman saying he would not support Haaland if she wins the nomination after her campaign posted information about several residential properties owned by Bregman's family.

Meanwhile, the candidates' eye-popping fundraising hauls 鈥� and spending levels 鈥� do not include spending by outside groups in this year's election cycle. Several independent expenditure groups, or super PACs, have also spent large amounts on largely negative TV ads and mailers in the run-up to Election Day.

Campaign spending has been significantly more modest among the three Republicans vying for their party's nomination next Tuesday.

Cannabis entrepreneur Duke Rodriguez has spent the most of the three GOP candidates, with roughly $1.2 million in total campaign spending to date. His campaign has been largely self-funded, as Rodriguez has pumped $1.5 million of his own money into the race to pay for billboards, TV and radio ads, and other expenses.

The two other Republicans running for governor 鈥� small-business owner Doug Turner and former Rio Rancho Mayor Gregg Hull 鈥� have trailed Rodriguez in campaign spending.

Turner has spent nearly $835,000 since entering the race this year, while Hull has reported spending about $520,000 on his campaign since last year.

A campaign spokeswoman said Friday the latest numbers show growing support for Turner, who appeared at a fundraiser this month at President Donald Trump's Mar-a-Lago resort in Florida. 

"We are confident that we will close out this race strong and continue carrying our uniting message into the general election," said Turner campaign spokeswoman Rachel Kjellman. "New Mexicans are looking for a new direction, and this campaign has the momentum to deliver it."

For his part, Hull described his campaign as a "grassroots" effort focused on making life better for New Mexico residents.

"With the support of our grassroots donors and volunteers, we will win Tuesday and continue the fight for New Mexico's future in November," Hull said in a Friday statement.

The reports filed this week covered a key three-week stretch in the run-up to the primary election 鈥� from May 5 through May 26.

All major-party candidates running in this year's primary election will be required to file one additional campaign fundraising report on June 23, covering all spending and donations received in the days just before and immediately after the primary.
