Nevada

Nevada is a fast-growing, politically competitive state where Democrats currently hold trifecta control (when a single party has total control of the governorship and both chambers of the state legislature). Nevada’s map-drawing process ended in November 2021, when Governor Steve Sisolak—a fair maps champion whose election we supported in 2018—approved fair congressional and state legislative maps passed by the Nevada Legislature.

We are targeting Nevada again this fall: the governor, secretary of state, state Senate, and state House. Simply put, we must 1) protect the legislative majorities we helped secure in the state Senate and House, and 2) help re-elect officials who have proven their commitment to drawing fair maps, such as Governor Sisolak. We are also supporting Cisco Aguilar, a pro-democracy candidate for secretary of state who will protect voting rights and our elections.

How Our Fight Continues

Thanks to the grassroots movement for fair maps, we have maps in place that are far more fair than they would have been if Republicans had been allowed to gerrymander unchecked this past redistricting cycle. But if the last few years have shown us anything, it’s that our fight to protect free and fair elections is far from over. Redistricting has always been part of the larger fight to protect our democracy. The stakes are far too high to stand by the sidelines.
