Elected officials — including @GovSisolak, @SenCortezMasto, @SenJackyRosen, and @AaronDFordNV — are joining Silver State Health Insurance Exchange officials this morning to kick off open enrollment. I'll be tweeting out updates from the presser here.
@GovSisolak @SenCortezMasto @SenJackyRosen @AaronDFordNV Heather Korbulic, the exchange's executive director, notes that the exchange is working with five different carriers this year that are offering a combined 50 plans — almost double the number of plans they've had in years passed.
@GovSisolak @SenCortezMasto @SenJackyRosen @AaronDFordNV Korbulic notes that the U.S. Supreme Court will be hearing the Affordable Care Act case on Nov. 10 but she says consumers should know that they do not anticipate any impacts on plan year 2021.
@GovSisolak @SenCortezMasto @SenJackyRosen @AaronDFordNV Attorney General Aaron Ford is currently running through the numbers — impacts on seniors, adult children, rural hospitals, Medicaid, etc. — if the ACA goes away.

No updates yet on Washoe County's website, but the registrar is about to hold a virtual press briefing. I'll be tweeting out highlights, so follow along here!
Washoe County Registrar Deanna Spikula said the county received around 9,000 ballots that came in on Election Day through drop off locations and Election Day polling locations. She says the county is verifying, processing and tallying those ballots.
Spikula says Washoe County will be posting results daily by 10 a.m. moving forward.

Hello (👋) to my new followers! While we wait on Washoe to post its election results, let me introduce you to my other, very exciting beat: the coronavirus pandemic!

In addition to tweeting out election numbers I also tweet out a daily COVID update. So, without further ado...
Nevada COVID-19 updates for 11/4:

🧪 Test positivity remains high. Cumulative test positivity is 12.64%; avg daily test positivity is 22.52%.

🏥 COVID-19 hospitalizations are at 696, +1 from the previous day. ImageImageImageImage
😷 Cases continue to climb in Nevada. The seven-day average of new cases reported each day is 895 today — where we were last on about Aug. 8. We've seen steady increases in case numbers now since mid-September. Image

Douglas County numbers are now in here. Biden now leading at 50.76% statewide with Trump at 47.39%. (That's a 35,000-vote lead.)
We still are missing some rurals that will narrow the race further: Carson, Eureka, Lander and Lincoln.
We got some new Washoe votes in that further narrowed the race:
- Biden: 50.62%
- Trump: 47.51%

Still awhile until polls close here in Nevada (and potentially later pending the outcome of the latest Trump campaign/Nevada GOP lawsuit)... but until then, I wanted to highlight some of the fantastic work from our team ahead of the election.
First of all, thanks to @JackieValley, we have this excellent Election Day Primer that's your one-stop shop for everything you need to know as the election cycle comes to a close. thenevadaindependent.com/article/electi…
@JackieValley The tireless @RileySnyder has been following what feels like countless lawsuits in the run-up to the election. His most recent story today looked at a last-minute appeal to the Nevada Supreme Court that would halt mail ballot counting. thenevadaindependent.com/article/trump-…

Nevada COVID-19 updates for 11/2:

🧪 Test positivity remains high. Cumulative test positivity is 12.51%; avg daily test positivity is 19.49%.

🏥 COVID-19 hospitalizations are at 678, +93 from the last reported day, two days ago, fairly steadily creeping back up. ImageImageImageImage
😷 Cases remain high, though we did have a tiny drop yesterday and the day before in the seven-day average of new cases reported each day (857 to 844 to 830) — still too early to tell where the trend is going though. Image
The good news is that deaths have continued to stay pretty low. We've generally been in the range of 4-6 new deaths reported each day on average for the last two weeks. Image
