Nevada Republican Gov. Joe Lombardo is criticizing his state party’s plan to forge ahead with a caucus despite the state-run primary occurring two days prior
Nevada Republican Gov. Joe Lombardo ripped his state party's plan to hold a caucus despite a primary election occurring two days prior, a split that some state GOP officials warn could confuse voters in a key early nomination state. Speaking on the “Nevada Newsmakers” podcast episode, which aired Tuesday, Lombardo echoed widespread concerns about the parallel election processes, mainly that it would cause confusion and prove arduous for Republican voters in the western swing state.
“I’ve had numerous conversations, both with the state party and other individuals involved. And it’s falling on deaf ears.” McDonald has long said that the state party is forging ahead with the caucus due to the Democratic-controlled Legislature not considering any of Lombardo’s election-related bills, most notably his calls to implement voter ID. He called the caucus process — which will require voter ID, paper ballots, in-person voting — more secure than the Nevada primaries.
