On May 28, the Nevada Assembly Legislative Operations & Elections Committee passed SB 421. It had failed in that committee on May 27. It provides for a February 23, 2016 presidential primary, which would replace the Democratic and Republican caucuses. The primary for other office would continue to be in June. See this story.

Nevada must be awash in money these days to support two primary elections.
GOOD! Caucuses suck!
Richard,
What is the plural of caucus: caucuses or cauci?
David,
Would you rather vote for Castro or Putin?
Castro probably has done less harm then Putin, but the question is why spend more money on two primaries. In smaller states like Montana the cost of a statewide election can be around 500,000 dollars. I imagine it’s more for Nevada since it has a much higher population. Plus the Republicans don’t want another attempt for someone like Ron Paul to win the caucus, when the establishment is pushing for someone else.
