The 1968 United States House of Representatives election in New Mexico was held on Tuesday November 5, 1968 to elect the state's two representatives.
This was the first election in which New Mexico elected their members using single-member districts instead of at-large districts. This was because of the Uniform Congressional District Act which dictates that members of the house of representatives must be elected from geographical districts and that these must be single-member districts. This was the first election since 1928 in which republicans won a congressional district in New Mexico.
