Nevadans are confident their votes will be counted accurately in the general election, Republican pollster Dave Sackett said in the opening panel Friday at IndyFest 2024.
Sackett, a founding partner of The Tarrance Group, and UNR President Brian Sandoval discussed “Polling and Democracy” with Nevada Independent CEO and Editor Jon Ralston and reporter Eric Neugeboren at The Indy’s annual conference.
Sackett said the polling found that Nevadans don’t believe the perceived threats that have risen nationally have anything to do with the state’s election system.
Sandoval, a Republican former governor who is co-chairing the Democracy Defense Project in the state, said a dose of skepticism by voters means they are engaged in the process and doing their homework.
“I’m always optimistic,” Sandoval said. “I think this is a great opportunity we have this election cycle. I think when all the ballots are counted, there’s going to be a validation and you’re going to see that we’re going to have an incredible election.”
