Donald Trump will not appear on Nevada’s presidential preference primary ballot — a decision made by the former president, not by election officials.
Election administrators in the state’s most populous counties are hopeful voters understand this and will not be surprised when the GOP frontrunner’s name does not appear on the sample ballots expected to begin arriving in in-state mailboxes any day now.
“The only candidates on Nevada’s (presidential preference primary) ballot are those who filed with the Nevada’s Secretary of State’s office to run for president in this election,” read a Clark County press release issued Tuesday. “If a candidate did not file with the Nevada SOS’s office to run in this election, then that candidate’s name cannot appear on the ballot.”
While Clark County did not name names, it is clear who Republican voters might be expecting, but not find.
