We are confident that the Clerks and Registrars of Nevada will will conduct a fair, transparent and accurate election as this is basically an expansion on the no-excuse, permanent mail-in voting option that is currently in place.
In the 2018 General Election, 18.37% of Douglas County voters cast their ballots via mail, giving us the highest per capita percentage of voters that voted by mail in the State. We currently have controls in place to manage the mail-in ballot process and are constantly reevaluating and improving upon those controls.
