Nevada emerges as key battleground in tight 2024 election race

Nevada is a key swing state in the upcoming 2024 election, with polls showing a tight race between Vice President Kamala Harris and former President Donald Trump. The state has a diverse electorate, with 40% of registered voters identifying as nonpartisan. Currently, Republicans have a slight edge in voter turnout, leading by about five points over Democrats. This marks a shift from previous elections, where Democrats had stronger support. Nonpartisan voters, who make up over a quarter of the electorate, will be crucial for both campaigns. Both candidates are actively campaigning in Nevada, with Harris holding rallies in Reno and Las Vegas, while Trump spoke in Henderson. Despite its recent Democratic voting history, Nevada remains a competitive battleground.
