Ratings

We show no win probability for governor races. Our governor forecast has not yet passed its accuracy test against past elections, so these pages carry ratings, polls and fundraising instead.

On the November ballot

We do not carry Nevada's certified primary result.

Nevada Secretary of State, Elections Division publishes the certified primary result on its official results page.

Nevada's election site turns away automated requests, and we do not work around that.

Nevada held its primary on June 9, 2026.
