About Language Assistance
Federal law requires some areas, including Bernalillo County, to provide language help during elections for voters who speak Spanish, Native American, Asian, or Alaska Native languages. This ensures everyone has a fair chance to vote, even if they don’t speak or read English well.
Here are some external resources for more information on the requirements:
Federal law 52 USC § 10503: Bilingual election requirements
Covered areas and required languages
Current public data for language minority groups
