By John Sadler Sunday, Aug. 2, 2020 | 12:17 p.m. CARSON CITY – The Nevada Legislature has passed a bill extending mail-in ballot provisions for the November general election because of concerns over voting safety during the pandemic.
Republican Secretary of State Barbara Cegavske said her office had not been preparing for a large mail-in election.
Though the bill vastly expands mail-in ballot provisions, it does not do away with in-person voting locations.
"That he would threaten Nevada Democrats' work to protect voting access through a crisis of his own making is both despicable and par for the course."
Senate Majority Leader Nicole Cannizzaro, D-Las Vegas, criticized Ronna McDaniel, the chair of the Republican National Convention, after McDaniel tweeted that Democrats were looking to "create more opportunities for fraud and allow ballot harvesting."
