Joe Lombardo on Government Reform

 

 


Not requiring a valid ID to vote makes no sense

I argued that while we require people to have a valid form of ID for many daily functions - but not an ID to vote - makes no sense. I vowed that if we couldn't reach agreement that I would put it before the people and ask them to get it done. Do you know what happened? Nevada voters agreed with me and Voter ID received more total votes than any candidate or any question on the 2024 ballot. And I expect it to pass overwhelmingly again in 2026.

Fewer regulations at the end of his first term than at start

Candidates also spoke about the need for creating the right regulatory environment to bring new businesses to the state, and largely homed in on eliminating regulations. Lombardo promised the crowd that by the end of his first term in office, there would be fewer regulations in place than when he started and said the first regulations he eliminates would be those related to COVID-19.

End ballot harvesting, universal mail ballots

Joe will Introduce an election reform package that protects the integrity of our elections. Reforms that eliminate ballot harvesting, end universal mail ballots, require an ID to vote, and creates a bipartisan panel to oversee the elections that are currently controlled by single-party rule.

2020 Election: there was probably fraud on both sides

Lombardo later told the RGJ he didn't know if the results of November's election were accurate. "I personally believe there was probably fraud on both sides. We had an environment where it was easy to commit fraud. There's no absolute perfect system, but there's no reason why you can't make (fraud) harder." There remains no credible evidence of widespread fraud in the 2020 election, despite former President Donald Trump's claims to the contrary.
