2026Nevada Voter Guide

This ballot question would enshrine Nevada's existing abortion law — which permits the procedure through 24 weeks of pregnancy — directly into the state Constitution, shielding it from future legislative or legal challenge. A "yes" vote would make the current 24-week standard part of the Constitution. A "no" vote would leave abortion rights governed by existing statute.

This ballot question would amend the Nevada Constitution to require voters to present a form of government-issued photo identification to verify their identity when voting in person, or to verify their identity using the last four digits of their driver's license or Social Security number when voting by mail. A "yes" vote would add those requirements to show ID when voting into the state Constitution. A "no" vote would leave Nevada's current law in place, which doesn't require ID to vote and instead relies largely on matching a voter's signature on a ballot with one on file.

This question asks whether data center facilities should be an approved land use within the Eldorado Valley Transfer Area, outside a protected multispecies habitat easement for native Mojave Desert species. Under the Boulder City Charter, any land use in the Transfer Area beyond those specifically listed (recreation, solar energy, a tortoise preserve, utilities, existing leases) must be approved directly by voters. The city currently leases Transfer Area land for solar, battery storage and one natural gas facility, generating millions of dollars a year.

A “yes” vote would add data centers to the list of approved land uses in the Transfer Area, though it wouldn’t approve any specific project — any future data center lease would still go through full City Council review under standard land-use and leasing procedures. A “no” vote would keep data centers off that approved-use list; it would not affect the city’s ability to allow data centers elsewhere within Boulder City limits outside the Transfer Area, which isn’t restricted by the charter.

This question asks whether Boulder City should be allowed to spend up to 50 percent of the Capital Improvement Fund’s most recent audited year-end cash balance each year on capital improvement projects, replacing the current flat $1 million annual cap set in 2015. The fund is filled by 20 percent of the city’s Eldorado Valley lease revenue from solar, battery storage and natural gas projects, currently holds about $13 million and grows by roughly $3 million a year. Under the charter, any Capital Improvement Fund spending requires direct voter approval. A “yes” vote would let the city spend up to 50 percent of the fund’s year-end balance annually on capital projects, in place of the flat $1 million cap. A “no” vote would leave the $1 million annual cap in place.
