Register to vote — it's your civic duty!
Nevada has same-day voter registration, meaning residents can register at the polling site and then proceed to vote. Those registering same-day must have a state-issued identification or tribal identification and vote in person. Those who register same-day in person may need to bring an additional proof of residency document if their current address is different than the one on their identification. Those who do not have an identification card issued by the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles must instead register at their county's election office.
What about voting by mail?
All voters received a mail-in ballot. Properly fill out the ballot, seal it, sign it on the back and drop it in the mail. If mail-in ballots are postmarked by June 11 and received no later than four days after the election, they will be counted. You can verify that election officials received your ballot by using the county's online tool at clarkcoun-tynv.gov/government/departments/ elections/voter_services.php
What should I do with the mail ballot if I vote early in person?
Bring the mail ballot to the early voting site. You'll turn that in before casting a vote, or you can destroy the mail ballot and sign an affidavit saying you aren't voting twice. You can also turn in your completed ballot to a poll worker, who will verify it was completed correctly. Drop-offs also will be accepted at all of the county's election centers on Election Day.
Poll workers and poll watchers
There are a variety of roles poll workers perform to help ensure the voting process happens safely and effectively. Specific roles and rules vary by county. Poll watchers are different, and are there to observe proper voting and polling etiquette. They are not allowed to speak with voters inside the polling place, record or photograph inside the polling place, or advocate for or against anything on the ballot. No one c an serve as both a poll worker and poll watcher.
Are there limitations on political operatives?
Political operatives and campaign workers are required to stay 100 feet from voting areas if they are electioneering. Further than 100 feet is fair game for electioneering and other political campaigning if there is no voter intimidation.
If voters see anything that concerns them, they can contact the secretary of state's office (775-684-5708, sosmail@sos.nv.gov) or the Clark County elections office (702-455-8683, elinfo@ClarkCountyNV.gov).
