[EL] Fun fact out of Nevada

[Lorraine Minnite]

Just for fun, I checked the election returns for President and Vice 
President of the United States on the Nevada Secretary of State's 
website - the number of votes for Mr. "None of These Candidates" is 
larger than Biden's margin (10,391 for Mr. None; Biden's margin is 
reported as 7,641).  I have nothing intelligent or wise to say about 
that - just thought I'd share.

I like these 'opposition to all candidates' rules like Nevada's Title 24 
Section 293.269.  The Nevada Secretary of State's FAQ's on this 
important subject helpfully explain that Nevada law requires "that 
ballots for statewide offices, President, and Vice President permit a 
vote to express a choice of 'None of These Candidates.' However, only 
votes cast for named candidates are counted in determining the 
nomination of election to these offices."  I'm not quite sure why they 
feel the explanation is needed, but it's good to know I'm not missing 
anything.
