The 2000 New Mexico Democratic presidential primary took place on June 6, 2000, as one of five final primaries on the same day in the Democratic Party primaries for the 2000 presidential election. The New Mexico primary was a closed primary, with the state awarding 35 delegates to the 2000 Democratic National Convention, of whom 26 were pledged delegates allocated on the basis of the primary results.
Vice president and presumptive nominee Al Gore won the primary with roughly 74% of the vote and won 23 delegates, helping him solidify his presumptive nomination over Bill Bradley, who had suspended his campaign three months earlier, narrowly passed the threshold of 15% and received 3 delegates, while Lyndon LaRouche Jr. and Uncommitted ballot option received roughly 2% respectively.
