A ballot initiative that would require voter ID in Nevada has submitted enough signatures to appear on the November ballot, according to a group backing the effort.
Vice President Kamala Harris is set to visit Las Vegas on Friday following the first 2024 presidential debate between Joe Biden and Donald Trump.
Nevada’s capital city lost residents last year, according to U.S. Census Bureau statistics, but the city is disputing the federal agency’s numbers.
State and national Democrats are leading a lawsuit that seeks to block Robert F. Kennedy Jr. from appearing on Nevada’s presidential ballot, citing state law.

A conservative group has formed a recall committee to attempt to kick Gov. Steve Sisolak out of office, a nascent effort largely motivated by fear of losing rights under recent gun control legislation.
While fighting a Democratic plan to stave off a scheduled decrease in the payroll tax, Republicans were also offering to vote for an increase in the state sales tax.
A bill to require organizations that donate more than $10,000 to a candidate in any election cycle was approved by the state Senate on Monday.
The much-debated public records bill that was considered all but dead last week is headed to the governor’s desk, clearing the Nevada Legislature just 30 minutes before the close of session.
