The 1928 United States presidential election in New Mexico took place on November 6, 1928. All 48 states were part of the United States presidential election. New Mexico voters chose three electors to represent them in the Electoral College, which voted for President and Vice President.

New Mexico was won by Secretary of Commerce Herbert Hoover over New York Governor Al Smith in a 19-point landslide. At this time the Republican Party was widely associated in the minds of many Americans with the economic success of the mid-1920s, and the post-Civil War Democratic stronghold in the deep South was still evident by the time of this election.
