METHODOLOGY
This research study was commissioned by Albuquerque Public Schools (APS) in order to measure voter support for an APS General Obligation Bond,
a new APS property tax, and property tax extension in the upcoming January/February, mail‐in 2019 APS election. The study also measured overall
public perception of the quality of education provided by APS and perceived seriousness of issues currently facing APS.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
ISSUES FACING APS
When voters were asked, in an unaided manner, what are the biggest issues facing Albuquerque Public Schools (APS), many of the top responses
involve issues with teachers, such as low teacher salaries, a lack of support for teachers, not having enough teachers, and the poor quality of
teachers. Other frequently mentioned responses include a lack of money in general, the poor quality of education, top‐heavy administration, and
overcrowding.
When asked to rate the seriousness of various problems facing APS using a five‐point scale, the majority of voters rate each problem tested as a
somewhat or very serious problem. For example, nearly three‐quarters rate a lack of school security and safety as a somewhat or very serious
problem, while approximately two‐thirds rate a lack of musical instruments and fine arts equipment, a lack of high tech education equipment, and
not enough money to renovate or repair existing schools as somewhat or very serious problems. Approximately six‐in‐ten rate the poor quality and
condition of school buildings, and the classrooms not being modern as somewhat or very serious problems.
EVALUATION OF APS
Less than one‐quarter (23%) of voters rate the quality of education provided by APS a positive grade of either “A” (5%) or “B” (18%), while just over
two‐fifths (42%) give APS a grade of “C,” and one‐quarter give a poor rating (17% D and 8% F).
Furthermore, APS teachers are seen in a more positive light than APS as a whole, as six‐in‐ten voters rate the job teachers are doing positively, as
either an “A” (22%) or “B” (36%). One‐fifth (21%) of voters give a rating of “C,” while very few (6%) give a poor rating (“D” or “F”) to teachers.
Among those who are familiar with charter schools, 50% rate the quality of education positively as either an “A” (14%) or “B” (36%). Sixteen
percent of voters give a rating of “C,” and few voters give a poor rating of “D” or “F” (47%) to the quality of education provided by charter schools.
GENERAL OBLIGATION BOND & PROPERTY TAX MEASURES
The majority (71%) of registered voters in the APS district are unaware of the upcoming mail‐in election, and, generally speaking, those who are
aware of the election are less likely to be supportive of each ballot measure. However, this may be partially due to the fact that some of the initial
news stories appear to have not shown the election in a positive light.
For example, 54% of voters are supportive (37% strongly support) of the two mill property tax measure. However, among those who have heard or
read something about the election, just 41% are supportive, while half are strongly opposed.
Just 34% of voters are supportive of the 4.83 mill property tax measure, while six‐in‐ten are opposed (43% strongly opposed). Among those who
have heard or read something about the election, just one‐quarter are supportive, while 70% are opposed (56% strongly opposed).
Furthermore, 56% of voters are supportive of the $200 million General Obligation Bond, with 32% who are strongly supportive; however, those
who have heard or read something about the election are equally as likely to be opposed to the measure as they are to be supportive.
Overall, females, younger voters, those with children attending an APS school, Democrats, and those who say they are extremely likely to vote in
the mail‐in election are more likely than others to support each ballot measure. Males, those ages 50 and older, Republicans, and those who give
poor marks to the quality of education at APS are more likely than others to oppose each ballot measure.
Generally speaking, voters’ reasons for supporting each of the ballot measures include: APS needs the money, to improve the educational system,
and they want to support the schools. Voters’ reasons for their opposition to each ballot measure include: poor money management at APS, they
are against a tax increase, too much fat in the budget, and the tax rate is too high.
Not surprisingly, support for the two mill property tax measure rises when voters are informed that it will not raise taxes (54% to 65%).
Furthermore, support also rises slightly for the 4.83 mill property tax measure, from 34% to 38% after voters are informed that the ballot measure
will raise their taxes by approximately $67 a year for a home valued at $200,000. Perhaps some voters expected a monetary impact of the 4.83
mills to be even higher than $67 per year. Interestingly, support for the General Obligation Bond drops significantly after voters are informed that it
will raise their taxes by $67 a year for a home valued at $200,000 (56% to 44%). Perhaps some voters assumed that the bond issue would not raise
taxes at all.
VOTING MESSAGES
Three messages were rated as being convincing by approximately half of the voters. The three most convincing messages in support of the bond
issue and property tax measures are, “this revenue will be used for enhancing school security and safety in every school in the district,” “this
revenue is an investment in the future of Albuquerque’s children,” and “APS needs this revenue because some schools are in great need of repair
and renovation.” The other two messages tested are rated as being convincing by just over two‐fifths of voters.
FINAL THOUGHTS
The upcoming APS mill levy/bond issue special election will be conducted via US mail. All registered voters in the APS school district will receive a
mail ballot in January, which must be returned by February 5th. In prior school elections, voters were required to vote at various polling locations
throughout the district, or fill out an absentee ballot application in order to receive a ballot via the mail. Thus, voters will now have a more
convenient means to participate in the mill levy/bond issue election.
Inevitably, voter turnout will increase as a result of the new voting method. Historically, voter turnout in traditional school board elections is very
low; however, we can anticipate that the mail‐in election will result in a higher turnout since every voter will receive a ballot in their mailbox. Still, it
is difficult to predict the number of voters who will participate in the election.
Poll results show that support levels for these tax measures are not as strong as in past years. However, those voters who claim to be extremely
likely to return their mail ballots are more supportive of these revenue enhancing measures. Thus, voter turnout will become a critical factor in the
outcome of the election. Voters who have children in APS are also much more supportive; therefore, it will be critical to educate and encourage the
parents to vote in the upcoming election since they will receive a direct benefit from the mill levies and bond issue.
Voters who recognize that the current physical condition of many of the district’s schools are problematic are more likely to support the mill levies
and bond issue. Educating voters about the problems APS faces with many aging school buildings and facilities should bolster support levels.
Finally, there has been a lot of national and local attention regarding the lack of safety and security of students and staff within public schools. A
significant proportion of revenue generated by these ballot measures goes towards enhancing the safety and security of every public school in the
district. Educating voters regarding this fact should be persuasive and may inspire voters to fill out and return their mail‐in ballot.

Voters were asked to evaluate the quality of education APS provides, as well as the job APS teachers are doing using a traditional grading scale of
A, B, C, D, and F.
Less than one‐quarter (23%) of voters rate the quality of education provided by APS either as an “A” (5%) or a “B” (18%), and just over two‐fifths
(42%) give a “C” rating. One‐quarter gives a poor rating of “D” (17%) or “F” (8%) for the quality of education. Interestingly, voters of lower socio‐
economic status are more likely to give poor marks to the quality of education APS provides (“D” or “F”).
Six‐in‐ten (61%) voters give a positive rating (an “A” or “B”) to the job performance of teachers, with 22% who give a rating of “A.” One‐fifth (21%)
give a grade of “C”, while just 7% give a grade of “D” or “F.” Parents of children attending an APS school are more likely than others to give high
marks to the job performance of APS teachers.

likely than others to be aware of what a charter school is.
Those familiar with what a charter school is were asked to rate the quality of education provided by the charter schools in Albuquerque using the
grading scale of A, B, C, D, and F. Half of respondents grade the quality of education provided by Albuquerque charter schools positively (14% “A”
and 36% “B”), while 16% give a “C” rating, and very few give a poor rating of “D” (4%) or “F” (3%). It should be noted that 26% of respondents have
not formed an opinion of the quality of education provided by local charter schools. Interestingly, among parents of children attending an APS
school, 40% have not formed an opinion regarding the quality of education provided by local charter schools.

Registered voters in the APS district were informed that in January of next year, APS will be holding a mail‐in election with three ballot measures
related to school funding. Voters were then asked if they have heard or read anything about the upcoming election. Three‐in‐ten (29%) voters say
they have heard or read something, while the vast majority (71%) have not.
Males, those of higher socio‐economic status, those in the Mid‐Heights, Republicans and independents, and those who say they are strongly
opposed to each ballot measure are more likely than others to say they have heard or read something about the upcoming mail‐in election.
People who receive a lot of information about APS from newspapers are much more likely to have heard of the mail‐in election than those who do
not receive much information about APS from newspapers.

Voters were informed that if the property tax of $4.83 for each $1,000 of net taxable value of property or the $200 million bond issue passed, their
property taxes would increase by $67 per year for a home valued at $200,000. Voters were also informed that if both of these measures were to
pass, annual property taxes would increase by approximately $134 for a home valued at $200,000.
Voters were then asked, knowing this, if they would strongly support, somewhat support, somewhat oppose, or strongly oppose the property tax of
$4.83 for each $1,000 of net taxable value ballot measure.
Interestingly, voter support increases slightly after voters are informed that this measure will raise taxes by $67 a year, as 38% say they are
supportive (24% strongly supportive), compared to 34% who said they were supportive before being given this information. The majority (54%) of
voters remain opposed to this ballot measure, with 43% who are strongly opposed. It should be noted that after hearing this information, 53% of
seniors strongly oppose this ballot measure.
Voters were also asked, knowing that the bond issue would raise taxes by $67, if they would strongly support, somewhat support, somewhat
oppose, or strongly oppose the $200 million bond measure. Half of voters are opposed to the bond measure (38% strongly opposed) knowing that
the bond issue would raise taxes by $67 a year, while 44% are supportive (27% strongly support). In comparison, 56% of voters were supportive
before hearing this information. Again, seniors are more likely than others to be strongly opposed (48%) after hearing this information.

Likely voters were read a list of issues that are currently facing Albuquerque Public Schools and asked if they feel each issue is a very serious
problem, a somewhat serious problem, just a minor problem, or no problem at all. Notably, each of the issues tested was rated as a somewhat or
very serious problem by the majority of voters. Generally speaking, voters who are supportive of each ballot measure are more likely to say each of
the issues tested is either a somewhat or very serious problem, while those who are opposed to each ballot measure are more likely to say each
issue is a minor problem or no problem at all.
Nearly three‐quarters (73%) of voters say a lack of school security and safety for students is at least a somewhat serious problem facing APS, with
40% who say this is a very serious problem. Sixteen percent of voters say this is a minor problem, and just 7% say this is no problem at all. Females
(45%), Hispanics (45%), those with a high school education or less (56%), and those in the Valley/Downtown area (50%) are more likely than others
to say this is a very serious problem.
Two‐thirds of voters say a lack of musical instruments and fine arts equipment for students is at least a somewhat serious problem facing APS,
with 38% who say this is a very serious problem. Sixteen percent of voters say this is a minor problem, and just 8% say this is no problem at all.
Those who have children attending an APS school (50%), those who are extremely likely to vote in the mail‐in election (43%), and Democrats (50%)
are more likely than others to say this is a very serious problem. Interestingly, those ages 18 to 34 (15%) are more likely than others to say this is no
problem at all.
Just under two‐thirds (64%) of voters say a lack of high tech educational equipment such as computer hardware and software for students and
teachers is at least a somewhat serious problem facing APS, with 32% who say this is a very serious problem. Sixteen percent of voters say this is a
minor problem, and 11% say this is no problem at all. Females (37%), those earning under $35,000 (42%), those who have children attending an APS
school (45%), and Democrats (39%) are more likely than others to say this is a very serious problem. Seniors (14%) and those who have heard or
read something about the mail‐in election (17%) are more likely than others to say this is no problem at all.
Sixty‐four percent of voters also say not enough money to renovate or repair existing schools is at least a somewhat serious problem facing APS,
with 29% who say this is a very serious problem. Seventeen percent of voters say this is a minor problem, and 11% say this is no problem at all.
Younger voters, those who are extremely likely to vote in the mail‐in election (33%), and Democrats (38%) are more likely than others to say this is
a very serious problem.
Six‐in‐ten (61%) voters say the poor quality and condition of the public school buildings is at least a somewhat serious problem facing APS, with
27% who say this is a very serious problem. One‐fifth (19%) of voters say this is a minor problem, and 9% say this is no problem at all. Those ages 18
to 34 (39%) and Democrats (34%) are more likely than others to say this is a very serious problem, while Republicans (14%) are more likely than
others to say this is no problem at all.
Six‐in‐ten voters also say classrooms not being modern enough to accommodate the high tech needs of the students is at least a somewhat
serious problem facing APS, with 26% who say this is a very serious problem. Eighteen percent of voters say this is a minor problem, and 11% say
this is no problem at all. Those who have children attending an APS school (38%) and Democrats (33%) are more likely than others to say this is a
very serious problem. Those who have read or heard something about the mail‐in election (17%) are more likely than others to say this is no
problem at all. It is also interesting to note that seniors and those of lower socio‐economic status are less likely to have formed an opinion.

† THE MEAN SCORE IS DERIVED BY TAKING THE AVERAGE SCORE BASED ON THE 5‐POINT SCALE. THE VERY CONVINCING RESPONSE IS ASSIGNED A VALUE OF 5; THE NOT AT ALL CONVINCING RESPONSE IS ASSIGNED A VALUE OF 1. THE DON’T KNOW/WON’T SAY
RESPONSES ARE EXCLUDED FROM THE CALCULATION OF THE MEAN.
Voters were read a list of statements that could be made by supporters of the bond issue and property tax measures and asked to rate how convincing each
statement is, using a five‐point scale, where five means very convincing and one is not at all convincing. Notably, less than half of voters found each message to
be convincing (a score of four or five).
Generally speaking, females, Hispanics, younger voters, those of lower socio‐economic status, those who have children attending an APS school, those who have
not read or heard anything about the mail‐in election, those who are extremely likely to vote in the upcoming election, and Democrats are more likely than
others to rate each of the messages as being convincing.
Nearly half (49%) of voters rated the message, “this revenue will be used for enhancing school security and safety in every school in the district,” as convincing
with 29% who say it is very convincing. Twenty‐one percent have a neutral opinion, and 29% rate this message as being unconvincing (a score of one or two).
Forty‐eight percent of voters rate the messages, “this revenue is an investment in the future of Albuquerque’s children,” and, “APS needs this revenue
because some schools are in great need of repair and renovation,” as being convincing, with approximately one‐fifth who have a neutral opinion, and
approximately three‐in‐ten who say these messages are not convincing.
Forty‐four percent of voters rated the message, “this revenue will be used to purchase more music instruments and art equipment, which are not funded by
the state,” as convincing with 28% who say it is very convincing. Twenty‐two percent have a neutral opinion, and 32% rate this message as being unconvincing (a
score of one or two).
Forty‐two percent of voters rated the message, “this revenue will be used to renovate existing schools and classrooms to better serve students,” as convincing
with one‐quarter who say it is very convincing. Three‐in‐ten (29%) have a neutral opinion, and 27% rate this message as being unconvincing (a score of one or
two).

† THE MEAN SCORE IS DERIVED BY TAKING THE AVERAGE SCORE BASED ON THE 5‐POINT SCALE. THE A LOT OF INFORMATION RESPONSE IS ASSIGNED A VALUE OF 5; THE NO INFORMATION RESPONSE IS ASSIGNED A VALUE OF 1. THE DON’T KNOW/WON’T SAY
Voters were asked to describe the amount of information they receive about APS from various sources using a five‐point scale, where five is a lot
of information and one is no information. As shown above, the top sources for receiving information pertaining to APS are friends, relatives, or co‐
workers (34%) and local TV news (34%), followed closely by 33% who say the local daily newspapers (in print or online).
Fourteen percent of voters report they get much of their information about APS from local radio stations or social media, while just 11% report
receiving information from APS newsletters received in the mail or from students.
Anglos, those earning $80,000 or more, those who have heard or read about the mail‐in election, those who are extremely likely to vote in the
election, and those in the Far Heights are more likely to report receiving information about APS from friends, relatives, and co‐workers.
Hispanics and those ages 50 to 64 are more likely than others to report receiving much of their information about APS from the local TV news,
while seniors and those who are extremely likely to vote in the mail‐in election report receiving much of their information from the local
newspapers.
Those ages 50 to 64 and Republicans are slightly more likely than others to say they receive information from the local radio stations, while
younger voters are more likely than others to say they receive information via social media.
Perhaps not surprisingly, parents of children who attend an APS school are more likely than others to say they receive much of their information
regarding APS from APS newsletters in the mail or from students.
