Thousands of Nevada Democrats took part in Early Voting for the Caucuses on Saturday amid Long Lines. The Nevada Democratic Party
Reported that 11,800 Voters had Participated in the Process as of 5pm on Saturday ahead of the Official Caucus date on Feb. 22nd.

During the Early Voting Process, voters are asked to Fill-In a Ranked-Choice Ballot, picking their Top Three to Five Choices for the Nomination with a New Rule dictating that Voting Ballots with only One Candidate will Not be Counted. Voters were Instructed to Select "Uncommitted" for their Second and Third Choices, to be Counted.

The Ballots will then be Transferred to several Hubs in the State where they will be Electronically Scanned, Stored, and Counted based on the Voters' Precinct Locations on the Caucus Date.

If a Voter's First Choice does Not Receive enough Support to be considered Viable, usually 15% of the Caucus site, at that time their Vote will be Recorded for the Next Viable Candidate on their List. The Problem with this method is: the Non-Viable Candidates on the First Pass can't become Viable like the Live Caucus.

Some Voters reported Waiting more than Three hours to Caucus at Temple Sinai in Summerlin after a Large Turnout, while Voters at the Henderson AFL-CIO Union Headquarters reported Wait Times of about 90 minutes.

In addition to the High Volume of Voter Turnout, Voters at some Locations reported that there were Not Enough Volunteers to Operate the iPads that were used at the Locations.

The Democratic Party Elected to use a Pen and Paper Ballot System with Electronic Scanning for Voting, and Provided Pre-Programmed iPads to Assist with Vote Tallying and Guiding Voters through the Check-In Process.
