What is a Posting Log |
|
Nevada law ( NRS 293.301) requires Posting Logs to be available as public information at every Election Day polling place. Posting Logs alphabetically list voters, by precinct at a particular polling place, and include the voters’ name, address and party. Posting Logs show who voted in-person on Election Day at the polling place during four specific time periods. Each precinct has one set of four Posting Logs so that information may be posted at four separate times during the day (9:00 a.m., 12:00 noon, 3:00 p.m. and 5:00 p.m.). Election Clerks prepare Posting Logs by placing a check next to the name of each individual who signs the precinct register and votes in-person.
In addition, Clark County provides a separate Posting Log for each precinct showing both who voted early and who voted by mail up to the Friday before Election Day. A blue cover will distinguish this Posting Log from the Election Day Posting Logs. The Early Voting / Mail Ballot Voting Posting Log is available as soon as the polls open at 7:00 a.m. |

Who May View Posting Logs |
|
ANYONE inside the polling place may view completed Posting Logs after polling place officials make them available to the public. Posting Logs must remain inside the polling place. |
