I believe it's because <span>new mexico was a territory, not a state
Prior to 1912, New Mexico was regarded only as one of the territory that incorporated into united states.
Because of this, hey do not posses any previlege to choose their representative in the Government (which make it impossible for them to influence the election)</span>

<span>Mexican Americans were a minority. They seem to be few in number than their american counterparts, also new mexico is a territory and not a state. Generally In-order to get the focus of the Federal Government to a particular state or territory, the government should own the land with dense population and the land should be home to some naturally found resources and development, where the Federal government did not have to spend a huge money for development. Unfortunately the New Mexico territory doesn't have all these to attract any interests from the Federal Government.</span><span />

the 60s civil rights movement achieved several important legal objectives. Does this speech focus on specific objectives or gene
elena-s [515]

The correct answer is: "specific objectives".

The civil rights movement was able to achieve equality and integration in practice in the 1960s, by the enactment of legislation which enforced the equality provisions and rights that were already contained in the Reconstruction amendments. These are the 14th and 15th amendments to the US Constitution, that were issued in 1868 and 1870 respectively.

A very important specific objective was consecuted by the enactment of the Voting Rights Act in 1965. It forbids racial discrimination in voting, after many years in which equality was not ocurring in practice, specially due to the approval of Jim Crow laws in Southern states, that circumvented the provisions of equality contained in the Reconstruction amendments.

Another achievements came from the decisions of the US Supreme Court. For example, the Brown v. Board of Education was a landmark decision issued by the US Supreme Court in 1954, which  declared segregation to be unconstitutional and overturned the former decision reached in the Plessy v. Ferguson judicial procedure, that allowed segregation under the principle "separate but equal". It was considered a major victory connected to the Civil Rights Movement as it set the path for integration too.
