Nickname the Ballot Sorter

KATHARINE E. CLARK | Clerk (D) | Term 2025 - 2028

Name Our Ballot Sorter — Public Voting

Help us choose a memorable name for Santa Fe County’s high-speed ballot sorting machine — a secure, state-of-the-art tool that speeds up processing and strengthens chain-of-custody tracking. This fun, nonpartisan contest uses Ranked Choice Voting (RCV) so you can rank your favorites and the most broadly supported name rises to the top. We’ll use multiple RCV rounds to narrow the list, then a final round to pick the winner.

About the Contest

We’re running five preliminary RCV rounds to narrow the field. Each round advances the top names. After those five rounds, the Top 5 finalists move to a championship round where voters use Ranked Choice Voting one last time to select the winner.

  • Open to Santa Fe County residents; one ballot per participant.
  • Public voting uses RCV — rank names in the order you like them.
  • Final results will be certified by the Clerk’s Office after voting closes.

Thank you for supporting accurate, secure, and transparent elections in Santa Fe County.
