"Steve" Sisolak (Democratic) signed AB126 (Assemblymen Frierson, Benitez-Thompson and Brittney Miller). The bill established a Presidential Primary for the 1st Tuesday in February. 2024 Election Information from the Nevada Secretary of State. 31 May 2023: Nevada GOP says it's suing to restore state presidential caucuses from KSNV. 31 May 2023: Statement from the Nevada Republican Party on Lawsuit to Restore a Republican Presidential Caucus Today, the Nevada Republican Party filed a lawsuit against the State of Nevada to ensure that only Republicans will decide the method of choosing our Republican Presidential nominee. Due to the inability of Nevada Democrats to execute a smooth, efficient caucus, they want to use unaccountable dark money in an attempt to force Republicans to change the way we choose our Presidential nominee, and allow out-of-state interests to interfere in the Nevada GOP nominating process. The first four early states continue to stand together to maintain our historic role in the Presidential nominating process. Despite the continued stonewalling of Governor Lombardo’s election bills seeking voter ID and transparent, accountable elections, the Nevada Republican Party will never stop fighting for free and fair elections. We look forward to the precedent that political parties may decide their method of choosing their nominee being upheld in court. 31 May 2023: Nevada Republican Party sues to stop from being forced to use a presidential primary instead of a caucus from Election Law Blog. Precedent: Arizona State Democratic Committee v Hull, Maricopa County Superior Court cv96-909. Result: By Freedom of Association the party was free to decide. |
