Electionsedit
In 2008, incumbent Senator Joseph Fidel retired and left the seat open. Sanchez ran in the three-way June 8, 2008 Democratic Primary but lost by 5 votes to David Ulibarri,[5][6] who went on to win the seat in the November 4, 2008 General election.[7]
In 2012, Sanchez challenged District 30 incumbent Democratic Senator David Ulibarri in the four-way June 5, 2012 Democratic Primary, winning by 11 votes with 1,237 votes (31.1%)[6][8] and won the November 6, 2012 General election with 8,844 votes (53%) against Republican nominee Vickie Perea,[9] who was appointed to the New Mexico House of Representatives in 2013 to replace Stephen Easley.[10]
In 2017, Sanchez won the district again in an uncontested race.[11] In 2020, Sanchez was defeated in the Democratic primary by retired teacher Pamela Cordova, who was seen as a progressive alternative to Sanchez.[12] In the 2020 general election, Cordova was defeated by Republican nominee Joshua A. Sanchez.[13]
