Voting booths with NV seal

The number of active registered voters in the state of Nevada decreased in November.

Nevada Secretary of State Francisco Aguilar reported a decrease of 24,271 active registered voters in a release on Tuesday.

The total number of active registered voters in Nevada is 2,105,361, representing a decrease of slightly more than a percent from October.

The decrease in active registered voters is due largely to list maintenance performed by the Washoe County Registrar of Voter’s Office, which sent approximately 35,000 notices to voters and inactivated approximately 32,000 voters who did not respond to the notice.

Nonpartisan active registered voters decreased by 11,900, Republican Party active registered voters statewide decreased by 4,446, Democratic Party active registered voters statewide decreased by 5,428, Independent American Party active registered voters decreased by 1,091, and Libertarian Party of Nevada active registered voters decreased by 341.

Active registered voters from a compilation of “other” minor political parties decreased by 1,065.
