    How ranked choice voting effort started, a conservative perspective on Question 3 and Tim Walz rally

    Our Question 3 debate is less than a week away, but before we bring you that debate, we've got a few more perspectives on Nevada's open primaries and ranked choice voting initiative. After a quick recap of Tim Walz's Reno rally, we interview Doug Goodman, founder of Nevadans for Election Reform and John Tsarpalas, president of the Nevada Policy Research Institute. Goodman gives the backstory on how the ranked choice effort started and makes his case for Q3. Tsarpalas' think tank is advocating against its passage from a conservative perspective. Finally, we fact-check two campaign ads in the race for Nevada's 2nd Congressional district from incumbent Rep. Mark Amodei (R) and nonpartisan challenger Greg Kidd.

    How has ranked choice voting worked in Maine and Alaska?

    Nevadans will soon decide if the Silver State will become the 4th state to use ranked choice voting to pick its representatives. Before Nevadans decide on this revolutionary change, we're taking a closer look at how it’s worked in other states. Has it been smooth? Have there been hiccups? Has it taken longer to get results? And do people like it? This week, you’ll hear from two veteran reporters who have covered the implementation of ranked choice voting in their state. We interviewed Gregg Lagerquist, Maine politics reporter at CBS 13 WGME and James Brooks, state reporter for The Alaska Beacon.
