LAS VEGAS (AP) — In an unexpected move, Nevada GOP Gov. Joe Lombardo vetoed a bill that would have required voters to show a photo ID.

The voter ID wildly expanded drop in mail ballots that don’t require ID. It’s political theater, and you fell for it

The claim about Nevada's GOP Governor vetoing a voter ID bill is true. The bill, AB499, passed by Democrats on June 3, 2025, required photo ID at polls but was a compromise also expanding mail ballot drop boxes. Governor Lombardo vetoed it on June 12, citing weak mail
Bc the bill was a compromise bill and on the ballot will be voter ID that will likely pass

Gov. Joe Lombardo has vetoed the bill that would have required voter ID in Nevada elections starting next year, despite the proposal appearing to be part of a deal he struck with legislative Democrats. @tabitha_mueller and @eric_neugeboren report: thenevadaindependent.com/article/lombar

There’s a decent argument that Dems should embrace voter ID, given the changing nature of their coalition. Better yet, maybe you can trade “support” for something else you want.
I wish I had this when people were confused about it passing in Wisconsin so easily
Bill did not include mail-in ballots; which was a deliberate poison pill. GOP likes to vote in person so this would put them at disadvantage.
Wait wtf...........a REPUBLICAN governor vetoed a voter ID bill🤣🤣🤣🤣There MUST have been something dems stuck in it thinking as usual a Republican wouldn't read what he was signing!!!!
meh. This is a really weird state. I don't think it gives anyone an advantage. Waiting for Ralston, as always
