Why was Nevada last in the nation to start releasing vote results?

The clock was ticking to midnight on Election Day before the results started to appear on the Nevada Secretary of State's website. Nevada was last in the nation — beat even by Hawaii, whose time zone is three hours behind — to start releasing vote totals in the 2026 midterm election. According to Nevada law, registrar offices cannot post election results until every voter in line by 7 p.m., when polls close, has voted.

During the 2020 election, Nevada was so slow to release results that the situation got its own segment during MSNBC’s coverage. "Nevadans deserve better" than the wait times for results, Secretary of State Cisco Aguilar told the RGJ on Wednesday. "My team is ready to support Clark County officials and officials from any county willing to take ownership and confront these issues head on," said Aguilar, a Democrat who won reelection on Tuesday. "We’ve been poring over the data since last night to better understand what happened and will readily share what we learn with counties to
