A Short Overview

Nevada continues as a competitive swing state with Las Vegas and Reno anchoring Democratic strength and rural counties favoring Republicans. Its electorate is younger and more diverse than many states, with Hispanic and union voters central to Democratic hopes. Cultural debates center on housing affordability, gaming and tourism economics, and water rights.
