Nevadans not only helped re-elect President Donald Trump Tuesday but took a meaningful step toward bolstering the integrity of future elections in their state.
With 86% of the vote counted, Decision Desk HQ indicated that ballot Question 7 had received 73.5% of the vote in the Silver State, with only 26.5% of voters signaling opposition.
Question 7 effectively asked Nevadans whether they wanted to join the other 36 other states in the union that require or request ID to vote. Those voting by mail would have to provide the last four digits of their Nevada driver’s license number or Social Security number.
Presently, Nevada voters have to show identification only in rare situations, such as when registering to vote by mail after not previously voting in an election for federal office in the state.
‘This victory is a powerful message.’
