| Description | As of August, Democrats outnumbered Republicans by about 2,800 “active voters,” a subset of total registration introduced last year that is considered more accurate because it counts only those voters whose addresses are still valid. The state has 1,033,569 active voters.
Nevada Republicans had held the voter registration edge for the past three presidential elections. At the close of registration for the 2006 election, Republicans outnumbered Democrats by about 7,000 active voters.
Republicans claimed victory at the top of the ticket in November, winning the governor’s mansion. But they narrowly beat back Democratic challenges in two congressional races, and Democrats swept all but one of the remaining statewide offices.
