Contributing sentiments towards policy:

57% : Greater experience and expertise in higher education is desperately needed among the regents, and we encourage voters to support this ballot measure.
53% : Shifting away from a fully elected board would likely bring in members with more expertise in higher education and reduce the focus on electioneering that currently characterizes the Board of Regents.
53% : And numerous GOP candidates for the state Legislature as well as every leader of the Nevada GOP are touting their support of and relationship to Trump, Lombardo, Brown and the principles contained in Project 2025, which include draconian restrictions on women's rights, liberties and access to reproductive healthcare.
53% : Question 7Proposes to amend the Nevada Constitution to require voter ID.
32% : While arguments about improving election security may sound compelling, voter ID laws represent a false sense of security and serve as a covert means to deter mail-in voting, suppress voter turnout and diminish participation in elections by certain groups of people, including the elderly, working-class and rural populations.
