No. Nevada has closed primaries. A closed primary is a type of primary election in which a voter must affiliate formally with a political party in advance of the election date in order to participate in that party's primary. Independent voters are not allowed to participate in any state with a closed primary system without first registering as a partisan.
Code Section: Nev. Rev. Stat. § 293.287
Nevada offers in-person, online and by-mail voter registration. Additionally, the state maintains an automatic voter registration system. Nevada maintains a closed primary system. Independents wishing to participate will need to register as partisans. Voters must be registered at least 5 days before an election, though election day registration is available. Nevada primarily runs elections by mail. All registered voters are mailed a ballot before the election. Early in-person voting is an option that begins the third Saturday before the election.
Yes, it can be. In some states, independent voters face barriers like closed primaries that exclude them unless they change their party registration each election. Others offer open primaries, allowing all voters to participate regardless of party. Some states make registration seamless with same-day options, while others require voters to plan weeks or even months ahead.
