ABOUT NMET NETWORK
We are very proud to introduce the New Mexico Election Transparency website. NMet Network is a group of citizens in the great state of New Mexico who have come together to help promote secure and transparent elections. So, what does secure, and transparency mean? For something to be secure according to Merriam-Webster, it is free from danger; affording safety; TRUSTWORTHY, DEPENDABLE; free from risk of loss. Transparency, according to Black’s Law Dictionary, is defined as openness; clarity; unobstructed access, esp. to business and governmental records; lack of guile and of any attempt to hide damaging information. Our mission is to ensure each of these ideals is realized in the State of New Mexico.
MISSION
To unify New Mexico through communication, education, and action, promoting solutions for New Mexico’s election system.
GOALS
Secure and Transparent Elections.
