The Voter Registration and Election Management Solution (VREMS) was initiated after the passage of Assembly Bill 422 (AB422) during the 81^st legislative session. The multi-phased project includes a centralized statewide voter registration database and connects the election management systems located in counties throughout the Silver State.

According to the NV SOS, VREMS is designed to

• Improved speed and accuracy for maintaining accurate voter rolls across the state.
• Promotes the safeguarding of electronic communications between the counties, the Secretary of State Elections Division, and other state agencies.
• Supports the reduction of manual administrative processes. An example of this is the Automatic Voter Registration data connection with the DMV.

During the last legislative session, Governor Joe Lombardo and numerous Republican state lawmakers drafted various pieces of legislation to strengthen the integrity and transparency of Nevada’s election system, including proposals for the elimination of universal mail-in ballots, the implementation of Voter ID, and additional ballot verification measures.

The numerous pieces of legislation were tabled by the Democratic majority. Assembly leader Steve Yeager (D-Las Vegas) referred to the governor’s proposals as “dead on arrival” and claimed Nevada has “the best elections in the country.”  In a press conference, Democratic Attorney General Aaron Ford falsely claimed that Voter ID was “unconstitutional.”

As reported by the Globe, 74 percent of Nevadans, support Voter ID, including a majority of Democrats and Independents.
