  • Among the two largest metro types in Nevada, Suburban and Urban, Republicans increased their performance compared to 2016.
  • Urban areas have decreased slightly in their total contribution to the total vote, being made up by Suburban and rural areas.

AB/EV

Data Trust collects AB/EV files individually from Nevada’s seventeen county clerks and recorder’s office. Clark and Washoe County, Nevada’s two largest counties, send AB/EV files daily, while many other counties send files weekly.

  • AB/EV voting saw a significant increase in 2020, peaking at 88.0%, primarily due to Nevada switching to all-mail voting during the 2020 cycle. This increase didn’t carry over into 2022, as Nevada’s ABEV voting dropped by 9.8% from 2020 to 2022, but remained higher than pre-2020 levels as the all-mail voting system has remained in place.

  • All party registrant groups saw an increase in ABEV voting from 2016 to 2020.
  • Democrats had the largest increase in ABEV voting, with their total percentage of the voter remaining near their levels in 2020.
