Proposed ballot measures would repeal all-mail ballots, create voter ID requirement
A pair of proposed ballot measures filed Friday seeks to undo voting laws implemented by Nevada Democrats in recent years.
North Las Vegas resident David Gibbs has filed two proposed ballot measures with the Nevada Secretary of State. The first proposes to amend the state constitution to require photo identification at physical polling places and voter identification on mail ballots. The second repeals key parts of the 2021 Legislative Session’s Assembly Bill 321, which made vote-by-mail the standard for elections in Nevada.
Gibbs, a Republican who has dubbed the effort and its supporting political action committee “Repair the Vote,” says he sees these issues as nonpartisan. He points to a Monmouth poll in June 2021 that found 80% of Americans support requiring voters to show identification at the polling place and only 18% oppose.
When broken down by political party: 62% of Democrats, 87% of independents and 91% of Republicans nationally support a voter ID requirement.
