Nevada Secretary of State Bill for January Deadline for All Non-Presidential Candidates

Nevada Secretary of State Ross Miller, a Democrat, has asked the Nevada legislature to move the deadline for all non-presidential candidates to January of election years, even though the Nevada primary is held in August. The bill to make this change is AB 82, introduced by the Assembly Committee on Elections, Procedures, Ethics, and Constitutional Amendments, on behalf of the Secretary.

The bill also moves the non-presidential independent petition deadline to January. Minor parties, which nominate by convention, would need to have nominated their candidates by January. Major party members seeking to run in the August primary would file a declaration of candidacy no later than January.

  1. January is way too early a deadline for ballot access petitions and for minor parties to have nominated their candidates. This Ross Miller guy has got to be stupid or evil, perhaps both.
