Complete·5/30/25

Nevada AB477 revises how incarcerated persons are counted for apportionment of election districts.

Nevada AB477 amends the apportionment process for election districts by revising how incarcerated persons are counted. The bill requires the Department of Corrections to provide specific information about each inmate to the State Demographer. This information includes the inmate's last known residential address, age, and race or ethnicity. The State Demographer must then revise population counts to reflect these details, ensuring inmates are counted in their pre-incarceration residence.
