1.        I’m  not sure how a dog could legally register to vote under NM 
law.  _http://www.sos.state.nm.us/sos-Questions.html_

Do I  need to present identification when I register to vote? Yes. 
What  identification do I need to provide? As  used in the Election Code, 
"required voter identification' forms of  identification as chosen by the 
voter: 
    *   (A) a physical  form of identification, which may be:  
    *   (1) an  original or copy of a current and valid photo 
identification with or  without an address, which address is not required to match the 
voter's  certificate of registration or a voter identification card:  or  
    *   (2) an  original or copy of a utility bill, bank statement, 
government check,  paycheck, student identification card or other government 
document,  including identification issued by an Indian nation, tribe or pueblo, 
that  shows the name and address of the person, the address of which is not  
required to match the voter's certificate of registration;  or
    *   (B) a verbal or  written statement by the voter of the voter's 
name, year of birth and unique  identifier; provided, however, that the 
statement of the voter's name need  not contain the voter's middle initial or 
suffix. If a voter fails to  provide the required voter identification, the voter 
shall be allowed to  vote on a provisional ballot. Each application for an 
absentee ballot shall  be subscribed by the applicant and shall require the 
applicant's printed  name, year of birth and unique identifier to be supplied 
by the applicant,  which shall constitute the required form of 
identification. A first time  registrant who submits the registration by mail may only 
use options under  (A)(1) and (A)(2).
