Correction: The City of Fallon council seat currently open for election is occupied by Karla Kent, not Kelly Frost, as previously mentioned in this article.

Candidate filing for offices open in the primary election set for June 11, 2024, will open on March 4 at 8 a.m. and close on March 15 at 5 p.m.
Local offices required to file with the Churchill County Clerk are two county commission seats: District 1, currently held by Justin Heath, and District 3, held by Bus Scharmann. Neither is planning to file for re-election. Both offices are for a regular four-year term.

There are three open seats for members-at-large on the Churchill County School Board of Trustees, each a four-year term. Tricia Strasdin, Kathryn Whitaker, and Gregg Malkovich currently hold those available seats.

Rounding out the county seats open are two member-at-large positions with the Mosquito, Vector & Weed Abatement Board for four-year terms. 
The City of Fallon offices that are open and require filing with the City Clerk include the Mayor for a four-year term and City Council Ward 2, a four-year term currently held by Karla Kent. 

Statewide offices that are open and filed with the Secretary of State include the six-year U.S. Senate seat currently held by Jacky Rosen, three Supreme Court Justices, Congress District 2 held by Mark Amodei, Assembly District 38 held by Greg Koenig, State Board of Education District 2, a four-year term, and one University Board of regent seat, District 9, a six-year term. 

Candidate filing for the presidential primary was held in October and will be held on February 6. The Nevada Republican Party will conduct a Caucus and Presidential nomination process on February 8.

Filing for judicial offices was open January 2 through 12, and the only open seat in Churchill County is the six-year term for Justice of the Peace, drawing three candidates: current JOP Ben Trotter, Judge Pro Tempore Stuart Richardson, and Brenda Ingram.

Early voting for the primary election on June 11 begins on Saturday, May 25, and runs through Friday, June 7.

His mother, father, Karen and Trent were neighbors of ours in Tonopah, Nevada. We moved to Fallon first and then the Kroll's later moved there also. Mother and Wanda were good friends. My brother Michael and Trent were playmates in Tonopah. Mother and my three little children visited the family at their ranch in Fallon. My condolences to Frank's family.
