Abortions occurring in Nevada

2022

Understand this number · 1 breakdown

Legal induced abortions reported as occurring in Nevada, regardless of the patient's state of residence, in CDC's 2022 Abortion Surveillance.

Residence context

Reported abortions involving out-of-area residents: 1,578 (13.2%)

How it was measured: CDC compiles aggregate abortion data voluntarily reported by state health agencies and other reporting areas.

Keep in mind

This is an occurrence count, not a count of abortions obtained by Nevada residents; it includes out-of-state residents and excludes Nevada residents whose abortions occurred elsewhere.
CDC abortion surveillance is voluntary and reporting completeness and definitions can differ across reporting areas; the measure does not establish the effect of a law or candidate position.

Median gross rent

2020–2024 estimate

How it was measured: U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts, sourced from the American Community Survey 2020–2024 five-year estimate and expressed in 2024 dollars.

Keep in mind

This is a multi-year statewide estimate, not a current asking-rent measure.
The median obscures differences by location, unit size, housing quality, and renter circumstances.

Share of Nevada’s civilian noninstitutionalized residents under age 65 who lacked comprehensive health-insurance coverage at the time of the ACS survey.

How it was measured: U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts, sourced from the 2024 American Community Survey 1-year estimate.

Keep in mind

This is a survey estimate for people under 65 and does not describe coverage type or continuity of coverage.
Insurance status alone does not measure affordability, access, quality, or health outcomes.

How it was measured: U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts, sourced from the American Community Survey 2020–2024 five-year estimate.

Keep in mind

This is an adult educational-attainment measure, not a current high-school graduation rate or a measure of school quality.
A statewide estimate can obscure differences across communities and demographic groups.

Population-adjusted measure

Age-adjusted firearm death rate: 17.2 per 100,000

How it was measured: CDC National Vital Statistics System death-certificate data.

Keep in mind

The total combines firearm deaths across intents, including suicide, homicide, legal intervention, and unintentional or undetermined injury.
It does not measure nonfatal injuries, firearm ownership, defensive uses, or policy effects.

The Census does not assign legal status in this measure.

Nevada snapshot52.6%

Natural gas share of in-state electricity generation

2024

Understand this number · 2 breakdowns

Natural-gas generation as a share of Nevada's total in-state electricity generation, including EIA's estimate of small-scale solar generation.

EIA generation totals

Natural-gas generation: 24,999,470 MWh
Total generation including small-scale solar: 47,570,883 MWh

Selected generation shares

Natural gas: 52.6%
Renewable resources: 42.8%
Solar: 30.5%
Geothermal: 8.2%

How it was measured: FactVote divides 24,999,470 MWh of natural-gas generation from EIA Table 5 by 47,570,882.811 MWh: the Table 5 electric-industry total plus Table 19 estimated small-scale solar generation. Shares are rounded to one decimal place.

Keep in mind

Renewable resources include solar, geothermal, hydroelectric, wind, and biomass; solar and geothermal are components of that total and should not be added to it.
In-state generation is not the same as electricity consumed in Nevada because power crosses state lines, and electricity is only one part of statewide energy use.

Nevada snapshot$4.82/gal

West Coast excluding California regular gasoline price

Week of August 31, 2026

Understand this number · 1 breakdown

Estimated average retail price of regular-grade gasoline across all formulations in EIA's West Coast excluding California region, including taxes. The region contains Alaska, Arizona, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington.

Nevada compared with the U.S.

Regular gasoline price

Nevada: $4.823/gal
United States: $4.071/gal

The West Coast excluding California average was $0.752 per gallon higher, or about 18.5% above the U.S. average.

Both figures are EIA weekly retail estimates for regular gasoline, including taxes, for the week of August 31, 2026. The Nevada-side figure is the West Coast excluding California regional average, not a Nevada statewide estimate.

U.S. Energy Information Administration ↗

Recent EIA observations

Prior week: $4.776/gal
Weekly change: +4.7¢
One year earlier: $3.877/gal
Change from one year earlier: +94.6¢

How it was measured: FactVote uses EIA’s West Coast excluding California series, the smallest current EIA retail region that includes Nevada. Changes are calculated from the published August 24, 2026 (prior week), and September 1, 2025 (52 weeks earlier), observations.

Keep in mind

EIA does not publish a current Nevada statewide weekly gasoline-price series. This West Coast excluding California regional estimate should not be read as Nevada’s statewide average.
The regional average combines Alaska, Arizona, Hawaii, Nevada, Oregon, and Washington, and does not represent the price at every station or in every Nevada community.
Prices are nominal and not adjusted for inflation or seasonal patterns. Weekly estimates can be revised and can differ from monthly averages.
Price changes alone do not establish the effect of any bill, official, or government action.

Understand this number

Median money income received by Nevada households, expressed in 2024 inflation-adjusted dollars.

How it was measured: U.S. Census Bureau QuickFacts, sourced from the American Community Survey 2020–2024 five-year estimate.

Keep in mind

Income is not take-home pay and does not directly measure taxes, wealth, prices, or purchasing power.
A statewide median obscures regional and household differences.

Primary election turnout: 21.81%

The official 2026 results report 449,267 primary voters and 2,060,184 active registered voters statewide.

Nevada's primary is closed for major-party contests, although nonpartisan contests can appear on other voters' ballots; the denominator includes all registered voters reported for the election.

Nevada Secretary of State ↗

How it was measured: FactVote divides 1,487,887 general-election ballots by 2,042,607 active registered voters and rounds to two decimal places. The latest primary comparison divides 449,267 ballots by 2,060,184 active registered voters.

Keep in mind

Registered-voter turnout is not the same as turnout among all voting-age or voting-eligible residents.
Turnout does not by itself measure election access, administration quality, confidence, or the effect of a specific rule.

Reported violent-crime rate

2024

Understand this number

Violent offenses reported to law enforcement per 100,000 residents in participating jurisdictions.

How it was measured: FactVote sums the 12 monthly state offense rates returned by the FBI Crime Data Explorer for each calendar year. The accompanying coverage value is the mean of the 12 monthly population-coverage percentages returned with the same query.

Keep in mind

These are crimes reported to law enforcement, not all crimes that occurred.
Nevada's average monthly population coverage remained at or above 99.5% throughout this series, but coverage still varies and does not equal complete statewide reporting.
Reporting systems, agency participation, and later revisions can change the published series.
Average monthly population coverage in 2024 was 99.5%; this is not complete statewide reporting.

How evidence matching works

A candidate position matches when its reviewed statement or source excerpt explicitly supports your selection. Statements that point the other way, contain mixed language, or merely mention the topic remain separate and do not increase a candidate's match. A vote matches only when exact official text establishes the measure's direction and the recorded Yes or No moved in the same direction as your selection.
