Nevada’s perpetual ballot loser “none” took more votes than ever before in Tuesday’s presidential contest, reflecting dissatisfaction among some of the electorate with both major party candidates.

The Boston Globe

After a close race fueled by record outside spending, Catherine Cortez Masto, a Democrat, won the Senate contest in Nevada on Tuesday to become the first Latina senator. She defeated Representative Joe Heck to fill the seat of Senator Harry Reid, the Democratic minority leader, who is retiring after three decades in the Senate. Outside groups spent nearly $90 million on the tight race, but the biggest factor may have been Donald Trump.

Election Day is anticlimactic for most voters, who can’t wait for the phone calls to cease and the direct mail to stop. Early voting began in Southern Nevada in 1994 as a limited pilot program and was established in Clark County for the 1996 elections. Since 2000, more people in Clark County have voted before Election Day than on Election Day. By 2012, between early voting and absentee voting, 69.3 percent of those in Nevada who voted in the presidential election in 2012 did so before Election Day, an increase from 66.9 percent in 2008.

A Nevada judge was none too pleased when Trump campaign lawyers asked for a list of poll workers’ names today. The poll workers in question had allegedly kept certain polling places in the greater Las Vegas area with high Latino populations open later than planned on early voting nights. The Trump campaign sued to challenge those votes, in the latest of a string of attempts by the GOP to dampen minority turnout at the polls—a timeworn tactic of voter disenfranchisement that’s playing out all over the country, from Nevada to North Carolina. Judge Gloria Sturman convened an emergency hearing, which was live-streamed online. The second the lawyers asked for the names, she was no-nonsense.
