With thousands of ballots still being counted, if you don’t think your vote matters— think again. Even if you mailed your ballot on Election Day, your voice will be heard.
For example— as of Thursday, Senator Jacky Rosen is the projected winner of the U.S. Senate race, but Wednesday night, it was a different story. The count showed Sam Brown was leading. The numbers changed in just hours as more ballots were counted.
Two days after the election, only Nevada and Arizona continue to count votes. Secretary of State, Franciso Aguilar, said the reason is simple.
“We want to make sure every vote gets counted and every vote matters,” Aguilar said.
If you mailed your ballot on Election Day, you are not alone. Those ballots postmarked on Nov. 5 are still coming in to election headquarters and will be counted.
The Clark County registrar told us Thursday they were expected to count and report another 9,000 ballots.
Across the state, 14,000 ballots need to be cured or have signatures verified by Monday, Nov. 12— that means thousands of ballots are still not counted.
