This is one of the more important tasks that I have; it helps each of you understand what you are being asked to decide about Nevada's future. There are seven statewide ballot questions on the general election ballot this November. Each question has the potential to make significant changes to how we live, learn, or vote. Four of these questions come from bills that passed the legislature last session and were written by the Legislative Counsel Bureau. One question was on the ballot in 2022 and appears exactly as it did then. The last two questions are new, and my office had the duty of writing thecondensation and digest. I asked my team to develop questions and explanations that most voters can read and understand easily, avoiding complicated legal wording. This is a deliberate effort to make the ballot accessible, so that we can be confident in our choices and what they mean for our lives. As you read through these arguments for and against each question, I encourage you to do your own research with trusted sources. The more informed we are as voters about candidates, ballot questions, and the electoral process, the better off our state willbe. Thank you for doing your part as a citizen and engaging with our democracy!Respectfully,Francisco V. AguilarSecretary of StateFor questions regarding the upcoming general election or the contents of the ballot question guide, please reach out to the Secretary of State’s office at (775) 684-5705 or nvelect@sos.nv.gov.
