What prevents a private investigator — or anyone else — from merely buying or otherwise accessing the location data collected by your car?

June 11 proved to be a rough night for Robert Beadles, a prominent Republican donor and election conspiracy theorist who formally endorsed 12 candidates for local races in Washoe County and supported others. Only three made it to the general.

Washoe County Commissioner Mariluz Garcia says she expected some mudslinging when she ran for her District 3 seat as a Democrat in the 2022 election. What she didn’t expect was the severe harassment.

Washoe County Commissioners passed an ordinance Tuesday making it a misdemeanor to camp or live in a vehicle on county-owned properties or public places.

Those digital gains are imperiled by a familiar obstacle: congressional inaction. Funding for the ACP is expected to run out in May, causing the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) to begin winding down the program; it stopped taking new applicants in early February. If Congress does not act to renew the program’s funding, hundreds of thousands of Nevadans could see their Internet bills increase or their service cut.

Washoe County commissioners on Tuesday voted against moving forward with allowing cannabis consumption lounges to open in unincorporated parts of the county.

As a hearing approaches in a lawsuit over the surveillance of local politicians, a Reno Democrat claims her family paid another private investigator to look into her primary opponent.

Surveillance of politicians in the Reno area was more extensive than previously known, and one private investigator had ties to prominent local Republicans.

Seven candidates are vying for one of three Washoe County Commission seats this election cycle, and the races will bring at least two newcomers to the board charged with making decisions about public safety, infrastructure and election issues in Nevada’s second-most populated county.

A primary challenger boosted by a far-right political activist ended an incumbent's re-election hopes to the Washoe County Commission, while other primaries set the stage for several high-profile general election matchups.
