Uh oh! Is it happening again?
NSDP party officials are telling campaign representatives that there’s a deficit of volunteers across the state, and so they are asking representatives of campaigns to act as precinct chairs, per multiple sources on ground

Per Dem source: “I'm at Spring Valley High School and a lot of the Nevada Dem Party volunteers did not show up. They are worried about the precinct chairs showing up as well.”

Per source: Desert Oasis High School just announced that they don’t have the registrations or the early ballots yet. They are on the way.

Not a good start here in Nevada. There are 2,099 precinct caucuses in 252 locations. That’s on top of sorting 75,000 early votes. Things will get confusing real fast. https://t.co/hq5bjNtk5F

It’s too early to tell but the Nevada caucuses don’t sound like they’re off to a fantastic start for the state Dems.
Things are going well. https://t.co/dbCSjCAhQl

If the Dems eff up Nevada after the chaos in Iowa, there should be mass resignations and all caucuses should be scrapped for good. Ridiculous. https://t.co/0EVIf6N2QI
