That was only really was true from 1968-1988 and in 4/5 elections republicans won by such large margins that if the had won by those margins today NM would still vote Republican.
In 1976 Carter was a terrible fit for that state , and 1968 in not sure why it voted GOP .
Lastly is that 1968-1988, the new deal coalition was quickly falling apart(or by the 1980s had fallen apart) while the GOP suburban + rural coalition was getting stronger and stronger , thus the GOP was able to sweep the sunbelt while the Dems were searching for a new coalition.
