    Political History of Nevada Chapter 1 Politics in Nevada, Circa 2016 37 CHAPTER 1: POLITICS IN NEVADA, CIRCA 2016 Nevada: A Brief Historiography By EMERSON MARCUS in Nevada Politics State Historian, Nevada National Guard Th e Political History of Nevada is the quintessential reference book of Nevada elections and past public servants of this State. Journalists, authors, politicians, and historians have used this offi cial reference for a variety of questions. In 1910, the Nevada Secretary of State’s Offi ce fi rst compiled the data. Th e Offi ce updated the data 30 years later in 1940 “to meet a very defi nite and increasing interest in the political history of Nevada,” and has periodically updated it since. Th is is the fi rst edition following the Silver State’s sesquicentennial, and the State’s yearlong celebration of 150 years of Statehood in 2014. But this brief article will look to examine something other than political data. It’s more about the body of historical work concerning the subject of Nevada’s political history—a brief historiography. A short list of its contributors includes Dan De Quille and Mark Twain; Sam Davis and James Scrugham; Jeanne Wier and Anne Martin; Richard Lillard and Gilman Ostrander; Mary Ellen Glass and Effi e Mona Mack; Russell Elliott and James Hulse; William Rowley and Michael Green. Th eir works standout as essential secondary sources of Nevada history. For instance, Twain’s Roughing It (1872), De Quille’s Big Bonanza (1876) and Eliot Lord’s Comstock Mining & Mines (1883) off er an in-depth and anecdote-rich— whether fact or fi ction—glance into early Nevada and its mining camp way of life.

Portage, MI 49002 Ph: 269.350.2812 Fax: 269.382.1813 Email: [email protected] Dear Michigan Aviation Hall of Fame Elector, Thank you for your interest in the election of the 2019 Michigan Aviation Hall of Fame (MAHOF) enshrinees. You are receiving this ballot because you are a member of the Air Zoo and/or: have been enshrined in the MAHOF, have been selected by the MAHOF Advisory Panel as an appointed elector, or are a member of the MAHOF Advisory Panel. The next enshrinement ceremony will take place at the Air Zoo’s Science Innovation Hall of Fame Awards Gala on Saturday, April 13, 2019. Please read the following very carefully before you cast your votes: Candidates are divided into two groups. Group I candidates are deceased. Group II candidates are living. To help you cast your votes, brief biographies of the nominees in each group follow the lists of names. Once your decisions are made, please cast your votes for the MAHOF enshrinees by following the submission instructions at the bottom of the ballot on the next page. Because the number of First-, Second-, and Third-place votes is often needed to break ties in ballot counting, it is critical that you vote for three candidates in each group. Ballots without three votes per group will not be counted. For questions, contact the Hall of Fame Advisory Panel via email at [email protected]. Ballots must be received by January 26, 2019. Thank you very much for your participation in this process! Through the Michigan Aviation Hall of Fame, you help preserve this state’s rich aviation and space history.
