Nevada's Primary is Messy: What Las Vegas Voters Need to Know
With the June 9th primary election fast approaching, host Jesse Merrick and creative producer Jacob Solis break down everything you need to know before casting your ballot. They cover a Clark County Commission race full of mudslinging, labor unions primarying their own Democrats over last year’s failed film tax credits bill, and how to vote in a primary election for the many locals who skip it. Plus, in a members-only extended edition, the two dive into the governor's race and the ripple effects across the ballot.
