Nevada Counties Begin Certifying Vote; 2 Legal Cases Pending

LAS VEGAS (AP) — County officials in Nevada began signing off Monday on the results of the Nov. 3 election that gave Democratic candidate Joe Biden a 33,596-vote statewide victory over Republican Donald Trump in the presidential contest.
 

The former vice president drew a little over 50% of the vote and Trump a little under 48% in unofficial results submitted for approval by commissioners in counties including Washoe, surrounding Reno, and Clark, which encompasses Las Vegas.

Elections officials and county clerks in Nevada's 17 counties are scheduled to approve results and turn them over to the Nevada Supreme Court to certify the statewide vote Nov. 24.
