There will be no debates in NV's most important race. After the June primary, we offered both gov campaigns an @TheNVIndy-hosted debate, as we did in 2022. Team Ford rejected our offer a month ago, then reversed course and accepted last week after no other venues worked out. 1/3

Election misinformation spreads fast. Accurate information should too. If you see a suspicious claim, post or ad about voting or elections in Nevada, send it to The Nevada Independent.
