Research notes & limits

Slate: confirmed against the New Mexico Secretary of State's 2026 General Election candidate list (candidate portal). Neither candidate has a published issue-by-issue questionnaire, so no issue stances are recorded. Samuel Kane's campaign site gives only a short biography; his background and any public record before this race were not found. Torrez's record items are from his office's own press releases.
