LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Voters at polling locations across Las Vegas were met with long lines on Tuesday. But even before Election Day began, Clark County reports 378,684 people participated in early voting countywide.
It's no surprise, with the record-breaking turnout so far this year there were also plenty of first-time voters at the polls.
