Political History of Nevada Political History of Nevada Chapter 9 Election Results 449 CHAPTER 9: ELECTION RESULTS State Elections Election Results Over the course of Nevada’s history, the State has remained fairly balanced in its political leanings. In 39 presidential campaigns, the Republican candidate won the State 21 times, the Democrat nominee 17 times, and the Populist Party contender once. In 31 of those presidential races, Nevada backed the eventual winner. Of 25 U.S. Senators to serve Nevada in Washington, D.C., 12 have been Democrats and 13 Republicans, with 2 of those Republican Senators also being elected as a member of the Silver Party as well. Nevada has been represented by 38 Congressmen or Congresswomen, 20 Republicans, 18 Democrats, 3 of which may have run as a member of the Silver-Democrat Party. Th irty men have held the position of Governor in Nevada: 14 Republicans, 11 Democrats, and 2 each from the Silver and Silver-Democrat parties (NOTE: James W. Nye served as acting Governor of Nevada without party affi liation before the State’s fi rst election in 1864). Primary Elections in Nevada Th e ‘‘direct primary system,’’ as adopted by the Legislature of 1909 (Chapter 294, Nevada Revised Statutes), is a method of selecting party candidates by direct action of the voters. Th e system does not aff ect independent candidates who, as always, may enter the elections by petition. Primary elections are held on the fi rst Tuesday in September prior to the general elections. Th e returns on all State primaries to date are listed before the results of general elections. 450 Political History of Nevada NATIONAL CANDIDATES FOR PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT SINCE THE ADMISSION OF NEVADA TO THE UNION Republican Year Democrat Lincoln and A.

Election Results 451 Election Results: General and Special Election Results, 1864-2016 With Primary Election Results, 1910-2016 Th e “Margin of Victory” columns in the following tables show the number of Election Results votes by which the prevailing candidates won election. In certain races, more than one candidate can secure an offi ce. In those instances, the margin of victory of each winning candidate is calculated by determining the diff erence between the number of votes for that candidate and the number of votes received by the person among the losing candidates who had the highest number of votes. Where a candidate ran unopposed, no margin of victory is shown. Since the 1976 elections, voters in Nevada have had the option to vote for “None of these candidates” for any statewide offi ce or for President and Vice President of the United States. Only votes cast for the named candidates are counted in determining nomination or election to these offi ces (see Nevada Revised Statutes [NRS] 293.269), and in calculating the margin of victory.

  • News Release
    Attorney General Doug Peterson News Release FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE March 5, 2019 Attorney General Peterson Urges Congress to Take Action Against Robocalls Lincoln – Today, Attorney General Peterson urged the U.S. Senate to enact the Telephone Robocall Abuse Criminal Enforcement and Deterrence (TRACED) Act, legislation to curb illegal robocalls and spoofing. A coalition of 51 attorneys general, led by Nebraska Attorney General Doug Peterson, North Carolina Attorney General Josh Stein, New Hampshire Attorney General Gordon J. MacDonald, and Mississippi Attorney General Jim Hood, sent a letter to the U. S. Senate Committee on Commerce, Science, and Transportation supporting the TRACED Act. The legislation is sponsored by Sens. John Thune and Ed Markey. Attorney General Peterson said, “State attorneys general are on the front lines of helping consumers who are harassed and scammed by unwanted calls. For years, we have worked with both our federal counterparts and industry participants to encourage the adoption of technological solutions in the fight against these calls. I am proud to support this legislation.” In their letter, the attorneys general state that the TRACED Act enables states, federal regulators, and telecom providers to take steps to combat these illegal calls. The legislation will require voice service providers to participate in a call authentication framework to help block unwanted calls and creates an interagency working group to take additional actions to reduce robocalls and hold telemarketers and robocallers accountable. More than 48 billion robocalls were made in 2018, making them the number one source of consumer complaints to the FTC and the FCC and resulting in millions in consumer losses.

Garland Attorney General of the United States U.S. Department of Justice 950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20530-0001 Lisa O. Monaco Deputy Attorney General U.S. Department of Justice 950 Pennsylvania Avenue, NW Washington, DC 20530-0001 Re: Department of Justice’s interpretation of Wire Act, 18 U.S.C. § 1084 Dear Attorney General Garland and Deputy Attorney General Monaco: We, the undersigned State Attorneys General, are seeking clarity and finality from the Department of Justice regarding its interpretation of the Wire Act, 18 U.S.C. § 1084. As you may be aware, 25 State Attorneys General wrote to your predecessors on March 21, 2019 to express our strong objection to the Office of Legal Counsel’s (OLC’s) Opinion “Reconsidering Whether the Wire Act Applies to Non- Sports Gambling,” which reversed the Department’s seven-year-old position that the Wire Act applied only to sports betting. Many States relied on that former position to allow online gaming to proceed. Since that letter, the U.S. Court of Appeals for the First Circuit upheld a challenge to the new OLC Opinion, holding that the Wire Act applies only to sports betting. After the First Circuit decision, it is vital that States get clarity on the Department’s position going forward. States and industry participants need to understand what their rights are under the law without having to file suit in every federal circuit, and finality is needed so the industry may confidently invest in new products and features without fear of criminal prosecution.

Since 1974, LSC funding has provided vital and diverse legal assistance to low-income Americans including victims of natural disasters, survivors of domestic violence, families facing foreclosure, and veterans accessing earned benefits. Today, LSC also provides essential support for struggling families affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. As the single largest funder of civil legal aid in the United States, LSC-funded programs touch every corner of our country with more than 800 offices and a presence in every congressional district. LSC funding has also fostered public-private partnerships between legal aid organizations and private firms and attorneys across the country which donate their time and skills to assist residents in need. Nationwide, 132 independent nonprofit legal aid programs rely on this federal funding to provide services to nearly two million of our constituents on an annual basis.
