Lieutenant governor
Unlike most states, in New Mexico, the candidates for governor and lieutenant governor were elected in separate primaries. The winning candidates then run together on the same ticket.
Incumbent Republican lieutenant governor John Sanchez was running for re-election to a second term.
Deb Haaland was running for the Democrats. Marie Julienne had been running, but was disqualified.{{Cite news|author=Terrell, Steve|date=19 February 2014|title=Failed candidate for lieutenant gov. challenges Democratic rival|newspaper=The Santa Fe New Mexican|url=http://www.santafenewmexican.com/news/local_news/failed-candidate-for-lieutenant-gov-challenges-democratic-rival/article_92afcfb4-742e-5382-b1df-3812809c4aba.html|archive-url=https://archive.today/20140805164744/http://www.santafenewmexican.com/news/local_news/failed-candidate-for-lieutenant-gov-challenges-democratic-rival/article_92afcfb4-742e-5382-b1df-3812809c4aba.html|archive-date=5 August 2014|url-status=live|access-date=30 July 2014|df=dmy-all}} Chocolatier Chuck Higgins had also been in the running, but he withdrew.{{Cite news|first=Rob|last=Nikolewski|date=January 20, 2013|title=Chocolatier from Santa Fe runs for Lt.

Hector Balderas, the State Auditor of New Mexico, was the only Democrat running.

Attorney James Paul "Jim" Baiamonte had been running, but withdrew from the race.

Incumbent Democratic State Treasurer James B. Lewis was term-limited and cannot run for re-election to a third term in office.
Former state senator Tim Eichenberg and former chairman of the Democratic Party of New Mexico John Wertheim ran for the Democratic nomination. Former Bernalillo County Treasurer Patrick Padilla had been running, but he was disqualified from the ballot after he failed to collect enough petition signatures. Wertheim raised the challenge and Padilla was disqualified after a district judge found he was 93 valid signatures short of the minimum requirement of 4,373. Padilla may appeal the ruling.{{Cite news|author=Monteleone, James |date=April 8, 2014 |title=Former Bernco treasurer now out of state race |newspaper=The Albuquerque Journal |url=http://www.abqjournal.com/380600/news/former-bernco-treasurer-now-out-of-state-race.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20140423050658/http://www.abqjournal.com/380600/news/former-bernco-treasurer-now-out-of-state-race.html|archive-date=April 23, 2014|url-status=live}} State Senator Tim Keller had considered running, but chose to run for State Auditor instead.{{Cite news |author=Terrell, Steve |title=Sen.
