The Basics
What Are The Primaries?
The primaries are elections that allow political parties to determine the candidate who will go on to represent them in later elections. These happen at any level but get the most attention in the two years ahead of a Presidential election—when voters determine which candidates will represent the Democratic and Republican parties in the main election in November.
Who Can Register In Nevada?
- Be a United States citizen
- Be a resident of Nevada for 30 days prior to the election you wish to vote in
- Be 18 years old—or turning 18 by the election
- Not have been declared “non-compos mentis” or “mentally incompetent” by a court of law
- Not have been convicted of a felony—or have been convicted but have had your rights restored
Important To Note:
If you’re registering to vote by mail or in person, you must do so at least 28 days before the election you wish to vote in. If you’re registering to vote online, you must do so by the Thursday before the election you wish to vote in.
Voting Rights Restoration: Nevada does remove voting rights for people with felony convictions.
The right to vote is automatically restored upon release from prison.
Your Rights
Stay In Line
If you’re in line but the polls are closing, stay in line! You still have the right to vote.
Create A Voting Plan
Make sure you find a location near you, and make sure to review their hours.
If You’re Not On The List At The Polls
Anyone who isn’t on the list at their polling place may cast a provisional ballot. This ballot is verified by election officials and counted after it is clear that you are qualified and registered.
Mail-in Ballots
Registered voters will be sent a mail ballot. mailing will begin no later than 20 days before Election Day for in-state voters; no later than 40-45 days for out-of-state voters. No mail ballot packet by early voting? Call the Election Department at (702) 455-VOTE (8683) or email MailBallotRequest@ClarkCountyNV.gov.
Do You Feel Targeted At Your Polling Place?
There are laws protecting your decision to share who you voted for. You have the protected right to a private vote if you don’t feel safe. It is a federal crime to intimidate, threaten, or coerce anyone into voting for a particular candidate. To report intimidation at the polls, call The Election Protection Hotline: 1-866-OUR-VOTE or 1-888-VE-Y-VOTA (en Español).
Made A Mistake On Your Ballot?
You can ask for a new ballot! Simply speak to a polling place worker.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_text_separator title=”Health Equity Resources” color=”custom” border_width=”3″ accent_color=”#0a0202″][vc_column_text]
