Entrants with wins across multiple categories are entered into the state sweepstakes category, which uses a weighted point value for each placing entry. Based on those totals, sweepstakes awards are given to the three top-scoring entrants.

Entry fees for the New Mexico contest are $25 for the 1st entry $15 for each additional for NMPW members; entry fees for non-members are $30 for the 1st and $20 for each additional.
