    Harry Posted on

    Welcome to the RGJ election questions live blog: Your one-stop shop for answers to voters’ questions about the 2024 general election. If you have questions about the selection process or anything election related, please email [email protected]. I will do my best to get answers as soon as possible.

    To get you started, here are some 2024 Election FAQs:

    When is Election Day 2024?

    Election Day is Tuesday, November 5, 2024. This will be the last day to vote in the 2024 general election. Washoe County polling places will be open from 7 a.m. to 7 p.m. on Election Day. However, you do not need to submit your ballot until 19:00. If you are in line by 7pm on election day, you can still cast your vote no matter how long it takes to get to the voting booth.

    How many people voted early in Nevada?

    Minister of Foreign Affairs at 21.00 on Friday published data That reflected nearly 50,000 more registered Republicans voting than Democrats statewide during early voting.

    Just over 50 percent of registered voters participated in early voting.

    Can I vote today, Monday, November 4?

    No. If you missed early voting from October 22 to November 1, you will have to wait until Election Day on Tuesday, November 5, to submit your ballot.

    Why are news organizations reporting early election results as if everyone will vote according to their own party?

    The political system in the United States is a two-party system. For this reason, well-known third-party candidates running in the federal are often unable to participate on Election Day. Although nonpartisan voters make up a significant portion of the American voting base (especially in Nevada), researchers have determined that they tend to either lean left or right on the political spectrum, or that there is not enough research on nonpartisan voters to determine how they would vote. vote.

    Non-partisan voters either voting along party lines because they have little choice to vote third party, voting Democrat or Republican despite having no party affiliation, and a lack of data on non-partisan voters are some of the reasons why news organizations say they are voting for a third party. often people report as if they were voting along party lines.

    When will we learn the election results?

    Votes by mail have been counted since 8 a.m. on October 21. Votes cast in person by machine during early voting cannot be counted until at least 8 a.m. on Election Day, November 5.

    There is around half an hour at 20:00 on Tuesday, November 5, a fair guess as to when the first results will be published. Since it is a crime to report election results before the final vote has been cast, the public will not be able to see the election results until 19:00 on Election Day at the earliest.

    The presidential race is predicted to be extremely close. He may not be called for a while after Tuesday.

    What do the polls say about the 2024 Election?

    Although no one knows for sure yet, many reliable polls make predictions about how the 2024 Election will turn out. Latest New York Times/Siena College pollThe survey, considered the gold standard of polling, shows Democratic presidential candidate Kamala Harris in Nevada leading by 3 percentage points over Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump. However, due to the 3.6 margin of error in the polls, the race could go either way. Senator Jacky Rosen (Democrat) is also currently polling ahead of Republican nominee Sam Brown.

    For more poll results showing the presidential race is essentially tied in Nevada, see Jason Hidalgo’s report. let’s tidy up here.
