Indy Video: Thousands of voters flock to polls on first day of early voting

Even in a pandemic and despite all registered voters automatically mailed a ballot, tens of thousands of Nevadans still headed to the polls on Saturday to cast their ballots in-person.
In Clark County, voters interviewed by The Nevada Independent said the process ran smoothly, without too long of wait times or other obstacles to the normal process for in-person voting.
The state's two-week early voting period began Saturday and will run until Oct. 30. For a full list of early vote locations and ballot drop-off sites, click here.
Here's what some voters in Las Vegas had to say about the process:
We’re looking out for Nevada — and for you
At The Nevada Independent, we spend our days monitoring government meetings so the public knows what’s happening behind the scenes, holding powerful institutions accountable, and helping you understand the issues that affect you.
In this critical election year, that mission is especially important.
In 2026, we’re closely watching state races, policy changes, and public accountability — so our community has accurate, trusted information when it matters most.
We’ve set a goal to raise $48,000 by April 24. Every gift moves us closer.
Will you step up and help us serve our community?
