Vote Nevada PAC filed two constitutional amendment initiatives Tuesday aimed at transforming how Nevadans vote – and how maps are drawn. The group argues that its proposals will ensure a redistricting process free of corruption while guaranteeing all voters equal access to the ballot.
A surprise last-minute bill to open primary elections to Nevada’s largest voting bloc, registered unaffiliated voters, moved quickly through the state legislature and was approved by a majority of lawmakers on the last day of the legislative session Monday.
Nevada’s largest registered voting bloc – unaffiliated voters – could soon gain access to the state’s taxpayer-funded primaries, if a new bill from Democratic Nevada Assembly Speaker Steve Yeager becomes law.
In 2022, a majority of Nevada voters said 'Yes' to a ballot measure that would open up primaries to all voters and candidates and implement ranked choice voting in the general election. The question is: Will they do it again in 2024?
