Nevada Court Sets May 19 Hearing in Case over Special Congressional Election

A Nevada state district court will hear Nevada Republican Party v State on May 19. This is the case over whether the upcoming special U.S. House election in Nevada will be one in which various political parties nominate candidates, or whether individuals will simply file as individuals (although with a party label for each individual). The Secretary of State, a Democrat, had ruled for the latter alternative. The Nevada Republican Party had then sued, arguing that the Secretary of State’s interpretation is incorrect. If the Republican Party wins the case, each ballot-qualified party will nominate someone by party meeting. In either event, independent candidates, and members of unqualified parties, can also get on the ballot with a petition of 100 signatures.

  1. With all the variations in each state,it’s so hard to keep track of. I’m so glad you’re keeping this on the front burner for us.

    For NV I’m happy to see Independent’s can get on the ballot.

  2. Does the gerrymander Congress have to enact a TOTAL election code for electing Congress folks ??? —

    due to the party hack robot MORONS in SOME gerrymander State legislatures NOT having ALL minimum laws regarding Fed elections — regular and vacancy ???
