Thanks for your comment.

I don't have time this afternoon to research the exact numbers.

Most likely, there is no exit polling.

But I do want to check which Hispanic organizations publicly supported the ban.

If any national Hispanic organization supports such a ban, I have not heard about it.

A possibly good frame of reference for this vote might be the 2010 New Mexico governor's race.

Susana Martinez, who won that race, is a centrist Republican, a former Democrat, and is pro-Life.

Martinez's parents are Mexican immigrants.

60% of Hispanics voted AGAINST Martinez!

The only reason she won is because Hispanic voter turnout was very low in that off year election.

I expect Martinez will probably carry the Hispanic vote next year, if only because the Dems aren’t going to seriously contest the Governorship. NM Dems are going to put most of their resources into holding the legislature, which they have by a very narrow margin.
