The 2020 general election will be a "hybrid" election in Nevada. All active registered voters will be sent a ballot in the mail, but voters can choose to vote in person instead.
Can you vote early in this state?
Early voting is available to every voter in Nevada from Oct 17 through Oct 30. Voters can vote at any location in their respective county where early voting is offered.
Can you register on Election Day?
Nevada voters can register to vote in person at the polling place either during early voting or on Election Day.
Is an ID required to vote?
If a person’s name appears in the election board register or if the person provides an affirmation pursuant to statute, the person is entitled to vote and must sign his or her name in the election board register when he or she appears at the polling place to vote. The signature must be compared by an election board officer with the signature or a facsimile on the person’s original application to register to vote or one of the accepted forms of identification.
Make sure you're ready on Election Day with the appropriate forms of identification. Acceptable forms of ID are listed here.
