It’s #PrimaryElectionDay!!

We’re at one of the valley drop off sites, Desert Breeze Community Center. It’s all mail-in this year, but people can register for a ballot on site.

You can see the line wraps around the building. @8NewsNow #8NN

We’re told the line is shortening a bit, but many voters we spoke with say they’ve been waiting in line for 2-6 hours. @8NewsNow #8NN

Here’s a look inside the building, for both in person and drop-off of mail in ballots. @8NewsNow #8NN #YLEH #NVPrimary

Here’s a look at the line inside the community center. @8NewsNow #8NN #YLEH #NVPrimary

This is what in-person voting looks like. People come in, fill out their paper ballots behind these partitions, then hand them in. Election workers are sanitizing tables in between each person. @8NewsNow #8NN #YLEH #NVPrimary

This is what the in-person, voter registration area looks like. People come here, then go to the voting rooms inside Desert Breeze. @8NewsNow #8NN #YLEH #NVPrimary

The line has started to shorten, but still partially wraps around the building at 8:45 pm.

Election workers tell me they will stay open until the very last person is able to vote. @8NewsNow #8NN #YLEH #NVPrimary
