Los Alamos Republicans Announce Pre-Primary Delegate Convention at Fuller Lodge

The Republican Party of Los Alamos on Jan. 5 published its official call for a Pre-Primary Convention to take place at 9:00 a.m. on Jan. 24, 2026 at Fuller Lodge. The county convention will select nine delegates who will represent Los Alamos County at the Republican Party of New Mexico’s State Preprimary Convention scheduled for March 7, 2026 in Ruidoso.

At the time of the announcement, one statewide candidate was scheduled to appear: New Mexico House Representative Martin Zamora. The RPLA notice also indicated that other statewide candidates had been invited, signaling an opportunity for local voters and party members to engage with potential nominees and party leadership as the state nominating process unfolds.

The announcement includes RPLA’s official call document, a bi-monthly central committee meeting schedule and a calendar of 2026 meeting and town-hall plans. Contact details for party leadership and for interested participants were provided in the notice to facilitate registration, questions and candidate access. The party framed the convention as both a delegate-selection event and a chance to mobilize local Republican voters ahead of the state preprimary.

Selection of nine delegates gives Los Alamos County a defined voice at the March state convention, where delegates help shape the party’s nominations and internal platform priorities for the 2026 primary season. For residents who follow county-level politics, the convention represents a key moment when local party organization and grassroots engagement translate into formal representation at the state level.

The RPLA schedule of town halls and bi-monthly central committee meetings suggests sustained local activity through the primary season. Those developments increase the number of public forums where candidates and party officials can outline positions, respond to constituent concerns and build voter contact efforts.

Timeline for participants now centers on Jan. 24 for delegate selection and March 7 for the state Preprimary Convention in Ruidoso. The RPLA’s publication of the call document and contact information provides a primary reference for Los Alamos residents seeking to attend, observe or participate in the delegate process as the county’s Republican organization prepares for the 2026 election cycle.
