Carson City voters get ballots with mistake. Replacements to be sent next week.

All Carson City voters will receive a second mail-in ballot next week after the first ones were sent with a mistake.

Mail-in ballots began arriving Saturday at Carson City homes. They show candidate Lynn Chapman running as a Democrat for Nevada’s U.S. House seat representing Northern Nevada.

Chapman is actually affiliated with the Independent American Party. No Democrat is running against Republican incumbent Mark Amodei. The race also includes nonpartisan Greg Kidd, a wealthy tech investor who lives at Lake Tahoe, and Libertarian Javi “Trujillo” Tachiquin.

“Every voter will receive a new ballot, listing the correct party affiliation, which will be mailed the week of October 14, 2024,” said a notice released Monday by Carson City Clerk-Recorder Scott Hoen.

If voters have already returned their original ballot, they should complete the new corrected ballot when it arrives and return it. Or voters can cast their ballot in-person during early voting from Oct. 19 to Nov. 1 or on Election Day Nov. 5.
