New Mexico District 1 of the United States House of Representatives serves the central area of New Mexico, including most of Bernalillo County, all of Torrance County, and parts of Sandoval, Santa Fe and Valencia counties. It includes almost three-fourths of Albuquerque. The current Representative is Democrat Michelle Lujan Grisham, who became the district's second Democratic representative in 2013.
Until the 1968 elections, New Mexico's representatives were all elected at-large statewide. Starting in 1969, however, they were elected by districts. (See New Mexico's At-large congressional district.)
