SB428

Revises provisions relating to public office. (BDR 23-955)

Vetoed·6/9/25

Revises Nevada's public office residency requirements and procedures for handling vacancies and challenges to candidacy.

This bill revises Nevada's public office residency requirements, emphasizing that a person's actual residence, not just their constructive residence, determines eligibility for office. It mandates that candidates for public office provide proof of their actual residence, such as a driver's license or utility bill, when filing their candidacy. The bill also outlines procedures for handling vacancies in nominations, including situations where a nominee dies, is mentally incompetent, or no longer resides in the required area.
