Vote Nevada Update 1/22/2025

2 Replies

Vote Nevada Supporters,

Reporting about the new President’s executive orders often lacks contextual information about what an executive order is and what can and cannot be done through an executive order.  So, I am offering a Zoom meeting this Saturday, January 25th, from 6 to 7 PM, via Zoom, to review the rules around executive orders, when and how an executive order can be challenged, and who must follow an executive order.

As an example, we will review the TikTok ban law and the executive action to pause the ban.

You can RSVP for Saturday’s meeting here: https://vote-nevada.news/Executive-Orders-Review

Join Vote Nevada on January 25th via Zoom from 6 to 7 pm, to review the latest executive orders.

We will also briefly discuss the upcoming legislative session, which starts on February 3rd, and our Nonpartisan Caucus.  We are lazar focused on problems that need to be addressed, and solutions being offered to solve those problems.  There are 266 bills written out of 985 bill draft requests, so we can start reviewing the 266 complete bills.

Bills are located here: https://www.leg.state.nv.us/App/NELIS/REL/83rd2025/Bills/List

The form to submit a bill for the Nonpartisan Caucus to discuss is located on the 2025 Legislative Information page on the Vote Nevada Blog: https://vote-nevada-blog.org/2025-legislative-session-info/

The legislative advocacy training materials are also on that Blog webpage.

Thank you for being Nevadans with me,

Sondra

Vote Nevada Update 10/20/2024

Vote Nevada Supporters,

Some voters have received their mail-in ballots but not the Sample Ballot.  The Sample Ballot includes detailed information about the seven ballot questions, so those voters are missing balanced information to vote confidentially on the ballot questions.

I have a link to the Secretary of State’s Ballot Question Guide, which includes all the ballot question information that is in the Sample Ballot, here: https://vote-nevada-blog.org/2024-election-information-ballot-question-guide/  

Please share with anyone missing their Sample Ballot.

Also, I will be doing a Facebook-live discussion about Ballot Question 3 with Assemblywoman Claire Thomas tomorrow, October 21st, at noon.   You can watch here: https://www.facebook.com/sondra.cosgrove/

Thank you for being Nevadans with me,

Sondra

Vote Nevada Supporters,

Sample Ballots are in the mail, so we’ve officially entered the 2024 general election!  Additionally, you will receive a Ballot Question Guide booklet; if you did not opt out of mail-in voting, you’ll also receive a mail-in ballot. 

The Ballot Question Guide includes the complete language of each ballot question, a summary of the question and its effect, and pro and con arguments written by advocates and opponents.

You can access a PDF version of the Ballot Question Guide, a video review of the Ballot Question Guide, a one-page summary of all seven ballot questions, and a Fact-Checking Guide on the Vote Nevada Blog: https://vote-nevada-blog.org/2024-election-information-ballot-question-guide/

Each county elections department website includes early voting dates and in-person voting locations. You can see each county elections department website here: https://www.nvsos.gov/sos/elections/voters/county-clerk-contact-information

Vote Nevada is not providing endorsement sheets this year due to some candidates not receiving interview questionnaires and a lack of transparency around the endorsement processes of some organizations.

We recommend reading and watching candidate and ballot question coverage in our local media from trusted reporters and reliable research institutions. You can use the Fact-Checking Guide for tips on how to find and determine reliable sources.

If you have questions or need help, contact me at sondra.cosgrove@gmail.com
