Las Vegas Now | Nevada Supreme Court to Webcast Ballot Arguments Today
The Nevada Supreme Court will provide a live Webcast of today's oral arguments on petition challenges and state ballot questions. Justices will sit in Carson City, but Chief Justice Mark Gibbons says justices know there is statewide interest in the hearings.
The entire proceedings will be streamed live on their website. Chief Justice Mark Gibbons says justices know there is statewide interest in the hearings. The arguments start at 10 a.m.
The state high court has allowed an Internet link in three other recent hearings on the constitutionality of election issues. One petition being challenged Wednesday would divert room tax money from the Las Vegas Convention and Visitors Authority to public education.
Another would take convention authority revenue and spend it on education, transportation and public safety. A third would require a two-thirds vote to approve ballot measures that raise taxes.
