.@8NewsNow has a livestream of the Trump campaign/NV GOP press conference scheduled to begin at 2:30 p.m. today. I'll be live-tweeting remarks:
8newsnow.com/election/trump…
Chants of "God Bless Trump" and "Four more Years" before @AdamLaxalt & @mschlapp start press conference
Laxalt says the Trump campaign hasn't observed signature verification on the 600,000 votes cast by mail this election
ACU President Matt Schalpp says its important that "what happened in Vegas, the entire world needs to understand."
Schlapp says the Trump campaign has 1000s of examples of "voter irregularity."

Says at least 2 dead people voted in Clark County, Rosemary Hardle and Fred Stokkes Jr.
Schlapp says that at least 9,000 people who left NV cast a ballot in NV. Campaign previously sent letter to DOJ w/ examples of around 3K examples of 'nonresidents' voting, but many of those were military or legal absentee
We're now hearing from Chris Prudhomme, who is introduced as a representative from NV GOP but was intro'd last week as a media member trying to observe ballot tabulation in Clark County. He was a plaintiff on unsuccessful federal lawsuit asking to block sig verification machine
Now taking questions - Laxalt asked why whistleblowers did not come forward earlier.

Laxalt says the whistleblower was afraid to come over, says campaign is "reviewing all legal options."
Laxalt is asked about NV's Republican SOS saying that they have not found any evidence of voter fraud - says SOS doesn't actively look for voter fraud & doesn't have "people to investigate the system."

(SOS has limited investigation team but works w/ state DPS on fraud claims)
Laxalt says it's "absurd" to ask if there are enough 'fraudulent' votes to overturn election results
Q: Do you have any evidence that sig verification machine isn't working?

Laxalt: Reiterates that Clark County reduced settings & automatically accepts % of mail ballots. Says reduced settings "cast doubt" on signature matches but
"I can't tell you if that's small or large"
That's it for the press conference

NEW: Judge Joe Hardy Jr. rules that polling sites that were not open by in Clark County due to technical difficulties can remain open until 8 p.m. this evening.

HARDY: The right to vote is obviously extremely extremely important and if the courts going to err on the side of anything, as, as all parties candidly recognize here, best to err on the side of allowing the full fair opportunity for everyone to cast their votes.
IMPORTANT: Hardy says anyone in line at the listed locations by 8 p.m. can still cast a ballot

I'm following along with the state of Nevada's COVID-19 Mitigation and Management Task Force meeting - starting off with public comment, there was some feedback, but it sounds like the Nye County Commission is going to draft a plan to re-open brothels in the county
An attorney for the Chicken Ranch brothel says brothels have remained closed with "no rational basis provided for the continued closure."

Says there are "plenty" of skin-on-skin industries also currently open, such as dentists
.@GovSisolak weighed in on this topic during #IndyFest - said he wants schools to re-open before brothels can re-open

On a Trump campaign press call with former NV Sen. @DeanHeller, who says this is his first press call in a year and a half. Says he now spends 80% of his time outdoors, and woke up at 5 a.m. this morning to move irrigation water, feed cows, and checking squirrel traps
@DeanHeller Heller says that Biden met his family when he was sworn in as a U.S. Senator. Said the former VP flirted with his 80 year old mother & couldn't keep his hand off his pregnant daughter's stomach ("She found it unusual...but she was not offended")
Heller says he also knew Sen. Kamala Harris while in the Senate, and googled her before the call to see her accomplishments and didn't see much that impressed him. "I think that's pretty telling from someone who's going to become vice president."
