There’s an intimacy in the way people experience borders,” says Amy Reed-Sandoval, an associate professor of philosophy at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas. “Borders help shape people’s identities . I once spoke to a woman who had traveled from Canada to New Mexico for an abortion. It was a horrible situation where the baby wouldn’t survive the birth. Because of the controversy surrounding abortion in the United States, she was afraid of being questioned at the border and sent back. She said afterward that the fear of the imaginary border agent had robbed her of the opportunity to grieve for her unborn child. The border changed this woman’s feelings and her life story.”

It’s getting cold in Las Vegas, which is nice after that brutal summer. And for many people, reading a good book is the perfect thing to do when it’s this cold out. So today, four local authors and editors are with us to talk about their books, ones we think you really might be interested in.

Cashman Center never caught on as a premier Las Vegas destination. Located in the Cultural Corridor in Downtown Las Vegas, the 50-acre center, which includes a theater, warehouse showrooms and a field, is up for auction starting at $33.95 million.

History junkies, gather ‘round. UNLV-based Preserve Nevada released its annual list of the state’s most endangered historic places, making a point to include the Old Mormon Fort. While protected as a state park, the pace of surrounding development is prompting concern. The list also mentions frontier cemeteries, neglected historical markers, and vintage theaters (referencing the Huntridge) in broad terms, while singling out specific structures in various corners of the Silver State.

The Silver State is home to some of the country's most unique historical landmarks— but city officials around Nevada are looking to develop land and demolish the roots that started the success of this state and brought in the locals we know and love.

Nevada Senator Jacky Rosen, a first-term Democrat, narrowly won her re-election bid, defeating GOP challenger Sam Brown, according to an AP race call.

When Vice President Kamala Harris took over for President Joe Biden at the top of the ticket in July, Democrats in Nevada were ecstatic. Something needed to change. Throughout the year, former President Donald Trump — who had never won Nevada in two prior attempts — was leading Biden in polling by significant margins. On the day that Biden dropped out, Trump’s lead in the polling average was nearly 6 percentage points.

Ever since nonpartisans became the largest share of registered voters in Nevada last year, the results of this year’s presidential election were bound to turn on how such a prominent — yet unknown — group would sway.

After months of incessant campaign ads and an onslaught of political events, the 2024 election is over. It saw a sweeping victory for Republican President-elect Donald Trump, and it continued the tradition of close U.S. Senate races in Nevada.

After months of incessant campaign ads and an onslaught of political events, the 2024 election is over. It saw a sweeping victory for Republican President-elect Donald Trump, and it continued the tradition of close U.S. Senate races in Nevada.

Three days after election day, several races in Nevada remain undecided, including the closely watched Senate contest between Sam Brown and Senator Jacky Rosen. Rosen currently leads by just over 18,000 votes.

Nevada goes to Donald Trump, according to a projection by The Associated Press. Trump's win will give Nevada's six electoral votes to Republicans for the first time since President George W. Bush carried it in 2004. Trump and Democrat Kamala Harris made multiple campaign stops in the state this year. Most of Nevada's counties are rural and voted heavily for Trump in 2020. But Democrat Joe Biden that year won the two most populous counties of Washoe and Clark, the latter of which includes Las Vegas and three-quarters of the state's residents.
