One of America’s most contested midterm races, between Adam Laxalt and Catherine Cortez Masto, is coming to a head in Nevada.
As of Thursday morning, Republican Mr Laxalt maintained a slight lead over Democratic incumbent Ms Cortez Masto in the Senate race with just over 79 per cent of votes counted, according to the New York Times.
The race could still be subject to substantial shifts as two counties with the vast majority of voters - Clark and Washoe - continue to tabulate mail-in ballots late into Wednesday night with large margins for Democrats, according to the Nevada Independent.
Those ballots will continue to come in over the next several days, as state law requires them to be postmarked by Election Day at the latest.
In the race for Nevada governor, incumbent Democrat Steve Sisolak was several points behind Republican challenger Joe Lombardo, sheriff of Clark County and head of the Las Vegas Metropolitan Police, as of Thursday morning with 79 per cent of votes counted.
Four House seats are also up for grabs in Nevada, with Republican Mark Amodei claiming the first victory as he won reelection for Nevada’s 2nd Congressional District.

If 83% reporting and the remaing 17% are mail in... does not look good that NV will hold onto its lead.
17% outstanding equates to more than ~130k votes outstanding... if they are all mail in, 15,000 vote lead isn’t likely to hold.
You still don’t get it. That is the MSN narrative. Other things have happened. Stop going to the propaganda pool.
Mail in fraud.
LOTS of it.
ATTENTION MSM —
<><>2022 Repub wave is bigger (more votes) than tea party 2014…
<><>Republicans outvoted democrats 52-46 nationwide…
<><>6 million vote advantage for republicans…

I seem to remember that even Jimmy Carter said that mail-in voting was an invitation for fraud. Most, if not all countries, don’t allow it. Even most 3rd World countries require a voter ID, and don’t allow mail-in voting.
The ONLY reason the Media-Dem Party supports it is that it makes their fraud operation much easier.
They are cheaters, but they are lazy cheaters..............
My Mom in FL uses a mail-in ballot each election. But don’t they need to be in by election day?
What this proves is that people voted with the feet before they voted in the ballot box.
Many red voters in blue states and blue districts already moved to red states or red districts, which makes it harder to turn those blues red, they just make the red one redder.
Which means as a country we are starting to seriously divide by geography.
ABSOLUTE-YEP!!!
Clark Cty Nevada, home of Las Vegas, where suddenly, they know nothing about tech or how to count.
CNN is showing, as of 7:08 AM ET:
Laxalt: 49.4%
Cortez-Masto: 47.6%
Mail a ballot to every registered dem, plus another for the person/people who used to live there that are still on the dirty voter rolls.
Makes - Vote Early and Often - real easy.
Good points.
More concerned about the very slow House results. California in particular doesn’t make sense as the Dems will win most of them anyway. Been using the Fox News site but even they are slow. They are not showing Young Kim (CA 40) having won.
In Nevada:
Lombardo: 50.1%
Sisolak: 46.2%
84% of votes counted, 7:08 ET.
There are mail-in FL ballots, but you have to request one to be sent to you. That's what I did, called the election supervisor in my county and they mailed me a ballot. You can also track your mailed ballot online to make sure it was received and counted.
Well, you know how it is with imaginary numbers...

Confessions of a voter fraud: I was a master at fixing mail-in ballots
A top Democratic operative says voter fraud, especially with mail-in ballots, is no myth. And he knows this because he’s been doing it, on a grand scale, for decades.
Mail-in ballots have become the latest flashpoint in the 2020 elections. While President Trump and the GOP warn of widespread manipulation of the absentee vote that will swell with COVID polling restrictions, many Democrats and their media allies have dismissed such concerns as unfounded.
But the political insider, who spoke on condition of anonymity because he fears prosecution, said fraud is more the rule than the exception. His dirty work has taken him through the weeds of municipal and federal elections in Paterson, Atlantic City, Camden, Newark, Hoboken and Hudson County and his fingerprints can be found in local legislative, mayoral and congressional races across the Garden State. Some of the biggest names and highest office holders in New Jersey have benefited from his tricks, according to campaign records The Post reviewed.
“An election that is swayed by 500 votes, 1,000 votes — it can make a difference,” the tipster said. “It could be enough to flip states.”
The whisteblower — whose identity, rap sheet and long history working as a consultant to various campaigns were confirmed by The Post — says he not only changed ballots himself over the years, but led teams of fraudsters and mentored at least 20 operatives in New Jersey, New York and Pennsylvania — a critical 2020 swing state.
“There is no race in New Jersey — from city council to United States Senate — that we haven’t worked on,” the tipster said. “I worked on a fire commissioner’s race in Burlington County. The smaller the race, the easier it is to do.”
A Bernie Sanders die-hard with no horse in the presidential race, he said he felt compelled to come forward in the hope that states would act now to fix the glaring security problems present in mail-in ballots.
“This is a real thing,” he said. “And there is going to be a f–king war coming November 3rd over this stuff … If they knew how the sausage was made, they could fix it.”
Mail-in voting can be complicated — tough enough that 84,000 New Yorkers had their mailed votes thrown out in the June 23 Democratic presidential primary for incorrectly filling them out.
But for political pros, they’re a piece of cake. In New Jersey, for example, it begins with a blank mail-in ballot delivered to a registered voter in a large envelope. Inside the packet is a return envelope, a “certificate of mail in voter” which the voter must sign, and the ballot itself.
That’s when the election-rigger springs into action.
The ballot has no specific security features — like a stamp or a watermark — so the insider said he would just make his own ballots.
“I just put [the ballot] through the copy machine and it comes out the same way,” the insider said.
But the return envelopes are “more secure than the ballot. You could never recreate the envelope,” he said. So they had to be collected from real voters.
He would have his operatives fan out, going house to house, convincing voters to let them mail completed ballots on their behalf as a public service. The fraudster and his minions would then take the sealed envelopes home and hold them over boiling water.
“You have to steam it to loosen the glue,” said the insider.
He then would remove the real ballot, place the counterfeit ballot inside the signed certificate, and reseal the envelope.
“Five minutes per ballot tops,” said the insider.
The insider said he took care not to stuff the fake ballots into just a few public mailboxes, but sprinkle them around town. That way he avoided the attention that foiled a sloppy voter-fraud operation in a Paterson, NJ, city council race this year, where 900 ballots were found in just three mailboxes.
“If they had spread them in all different mailboxes, nothing would have happened,” the insider said.
Inside jobs
The tipster said sometimes postal employees are in on the scam.
“You have a postman who is a rabid anti-Trump guy and he’s working in Bedminster or some Republican stronghold … He can take those [filled-out] ballots, and knowing 95% are going to a Republican, he can just throw those in the garbage.”

In some cases, mail carriers were members of his “work crew,” and would sift ballots from the mail and hand them over to the operative.
In 2017, more than 500 mail-in ballots in New York City never arrived to the Board of Elections for races that November — leaving hundreds disenfranchised. They eventually were discovered in April 2018. “For some undetermined reason, some baskets of mail that were bound to the New York City Board of Elections were put off to the side at the Brooklyn processing facility,” city elections boss Michael Ryan said at the time of discovery.
Nursing homes
Hitting up assisted-living facilities and “helping” the elderly fill out their absentee ballots was a gold mine of votes, the insider said.
“There are nursing homes where the nurse is actually a paid operative. And they go room by room by room to these old people who still want to feel like they’re relevant,” said the whistleblower. “[They] literally fill it out for them.”
The insider pointed to former Jersey City Mayor Gerald McCann, who was sued in 2007 after a razor-thin victory for a local school board seat for allegedly tricking “incompetent … and ill” residents of nursing homes into casting ballots for him. McCann denied it, though he did admit to assisting some nursing home residents with absentee ballot applications.
Snip
Makes we wonder what all those so called republican election officials are really doing.
