Our voters must receive accurate election information. County Clerk Maestas would like to remind voters that the Los Alamos County Clerk's Office is your trusted, credible, and verified source for election information.

We will continue to promote #TrustedInfo via our social media outlets, which encourages voters to go directly to election officials' websites and verified social media pages to ensure that they are getting accurate information. Through this initiative, we will continue to inform voters about the election process, voter registration, voting, and much more. Follow us on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram for all your election information.
