Tomorrow, Tuesday November 3, 2026 is Election Day. We encourage every eligible voter in our tribal community to make a plan and cast a ballot. The people elected in Santa Fe and Washington, D.C. make decisions that can affect our tribe, our families, and the future of our communities. Voting is one way to make our voices heard and help shape the leadership that will represent us. Please check where and when you can vote, allow yourself enough time, and reach out to your election office if you have a question. Encourage your family, friends, and neighbors to participate. Every vote matter. Your voice counts, and our community’s participation makes a difference.
