Stephen Watts Kearny for the governance of New Mexico after its annexation by the United States in 1846. In 1912, with statehood, the Office of the State Treasurer became an elective one (1912 New Mexico State Consitution, Art. V, Sec. 1). The State Treasurer is charged with receiving and keeping all monies of the State, excapt as otherwise provided; distributing public money; and investing the state's permanent fund.
