Biden snagged another win in Nevada's primary, which is pretty big news, you know? The AP wasted no time in calling it after the polls closed. But here's the kicker: in the Republican primary, the option "none of these candidates" actually took the lead, which has gotta be a bit embarrassing for Nikki Haley, who was the main contender on the ballot.
Funny thing is, Nevada's got some funky voting rules, and more folks went for "none of these candidates" than for Haley. It's all happening in the midst of a pretty low turnout, with just a fraction of the folks showing up to vote either in person or ahead of time.
Nevada's making a switch from caucuses to primaries, and this was the first presidential primary they've had in ages. Seems they're trying to make things easier and more accessible for everyone, especially in today's 24/7 world.
Now, while Biden's win is a big deal, it might not totally show how pumped up voters are, especially in a swing state like Nevada that played a big part in his win back in 2020. Biden did his thing with a rally in Vegas, talking about the importance of keeping another Trump presidency at bay.
People are also thinking a lot about money stuff, like getting higher wages for stadium workers before the Super Bowl. Even though some folks aren't feeling super jazzed about things, there's still a lot of determination among Democrats to get everyone fired up and ready to go for the big election, just like Jaime Harrison, head of the Democratic National Committee, was saying.
