Key dates and information for 2026 elections
Nevada’s 2026 Primary Election will be held June 9, 2026, with early voting running from May 23 through June 5.
Nevada primaries are closed elections. Voters registered with a major political party — Democratic or Republican — will receive ballots that include their party’s candidates for partisan offices as well as all nonpartisan races. Voters registered with minor parties or as nonpartisan (NP) will only receive nonpartisan contests on their primary ballot.
The 2026 General Election will be held on Nov. 3, 2026. Early voting for the general election runs Oct. 17 through Oct. 30.
Before heading to the polls, election officials encourage voters to make sure their voter registration information is current. Registration status, email, and phone information can be confirmed or updated at VOTE.NV.gov. Voters should also ensure their driver’s license or identification card is valid and up to date. Updates can be made through the Nevada Department of Motor Vehicles.
Officials recommend voters make a voting plan in advance. That includes researching candidates and ballot questions, deciding whether to vote in person, by mail or by ballot drop box, and identifying the nearest polling location. Poll workers and election officials cannot explain candidate platforms or ballot questions, so voters are encouraged to review that information before casting a ballot. For reliable election information, residents can contact their local election officials.
