Nevada Bill for a Presidential Primary Introduced

On February 15, Nevada Assembly Speaker Jason Frierson introduced AB 126. It sets up a presidential primary for parties that are entitled to hold a primary for other office. The state’s two qualified minor parties, the Independent American Party and the Libertarian Party, nominate by convention and would not be given their own presidential primary.

The date of the primary would be the Tuesday that is one week earlierr than the last Tuesday in January, so it would be sometime between January 18 and January 24. The bill seems to indicate that anyone could be on a primary ballot merely by submitting a declaration of candidacy. No filing fee is mentioned. Here is the text.

    What are the current requirements in Nevada for a party to be entitled to hold its own primary & does it then become mandatory when that requirement is reached?
