** Nevada voters must approve two ballot measures again due to the state’s two-election requirement
------------------------------------------------------------

Nevada voters approved Question 6 and Question 7 on November 5. Question 6 would establish a state constitutional right to an abortion, and Question 7 would establish voter ID requirements in the state. Voters will now see the exact same questions in 2026. If voters once again approve the measures, they will then become part of the state constitution.
In Nevada, citizen-initiated constitutional amendments—like Questions 6 and 7—must be approved in two successive general elections to be ratified. This is known as a two-election approval requirement. You can learn more about two-election approval for ballot measures at the link below.

** How Trump compared to other statewide Republicans on the ballot in 2024
------------------------------------------------------------
In Tuesday’s Brew, we took a look at split-ticket voting, also known as ticket splitting. Split-ticket voting occurs when voters choose candidates from different parties in a single election. For example, a voter may select a presidential candidate from one party and candidates from a different party for other elections.
In the 61 elections for governor, attorney general, secretary of state, and U.S. Senate held this year, President-elect Donald Trump (R) received more votes than 40 other statewide Republican candidates and fewer votes than 21. Vice President Kamala Harris (D) received more votes than 36 Democratic candidates and fewer votes than 25.

** Voters have addressed ballot measures on religion in public schools at least nine times in the past 100 years
------------------------------------------------------------
Voters have decided on at least nine ballot measures related to religion in public schools over the past 100 years. The period of highest activity was between 1970 and 1972 when voters decided on four such measures. Topics included the Ten Commandments, the Bible, prayer and contemplation, religious clothing, excused absences for religious instruction, and students’ religious rights.

** Projected MOV changes by state
------------------------------------------------------------
According to election returns as of Nov. 19, President-elect Donald Trump (R) has outperformed his 2020 margins in every state and the District of Columbia. These margins may shift as final vote counts are certified.
The five states with the largest swings toward Trump between 2020 and 2024 were New York (+11.4 percentage points), New Jersey (+10.1), Florida (+9.8), Massachusetts (+8.7), and California (+8.5). Of these, Trump won Florida, and Vice President Kamala Harris (D) won the rest.
