Candidates field questions during Q&A session

Tuesday, May 24, 2022 1:00 AM

Voting is a fundamental element of a democratic society and allows citizens to have their say in how their local government is run. Being an informed voter is just as important as voting itself, as it is every voter’s responsibility to know how public officials will articulate their civic duties.
Meet the Candidates Night, hosted by the Humboldt County Chamber of Commerce at the Convention Center, provided voters the opportunity to get to know those running for public office face-to-face and hear from them in a Q and A forum with questions randomly selected from local citizens.
Most of the official races for the county will be decided at the Primary Election on June 14 with early voting held May 28 to June 10, so if voters want their say, they should vote in the Primary Election, as well as the General Election on Nov. 8.

How to participate in Nevada’s 2022 primary election

Wednesday, May 18, 2022 1:00 AM

It can be a dizzying affair, especially if you’re not constantly plugged into the political scene. Then, slowly but surely, campaign ads creep onto television airwaves and flyers clog mailboxes again.
We’re at that juncture again as the calendar swiftly moves toward June 14 — Nevada’s primary election. But what exactly is a primary election?
Think of it in terms of a professional automobile race: Much like a qualifying race determining which drivers move on to the main event, the primary election accomplishes the same purpose. Candidates filed for office in March, and the primary election will whittle down that field before the general election in November.
