Election law requires all candidates for office in the State of Nevada to file Financial Disclosure Statements as well as campaign Contributions & Expenses Reports showing all campaign contributions over $100 as well as campaign expenses. The first C&E reports are due no later than April 15 this year and cover the period from January 1 to March 31. Candidates must file four reports throughout the election year.
The Fallon Post will cover the campaign filings in a story in the April 22 paper.
The Primary Election will be held on Tuesday, June 14, 2022, with early voting beginning May 28. The General Election will be Tuesday, November 8 and early voting begins October 22.
In order to vote in the Primary Election, voters must be registered as either a Democrat or a Republican and can only vote in the respective primary. Since 2019 Nevada allows voters to register for the first time or update their existing registration on the same day they vote. To utilize same-day registration a valid driver’s license must be provided and the voter must vote in person.
Currently there are only Republican candidates running in both the Assembly and Senate race. There are four Republican candidates for County Commission, and no Democrats. The school board race did not draw enough candidates for a primary election and all seven candidates will move on to the general election. School Board candidates run as non-partisans.
The Fallon Post will also continue running candidate features each week and will have those features posted online under the Election tab.
