A Las Vegas resident, Andy Thompson, took a bold step this week in his fight for election integrity.
Acting as his own lawyer (a “Pro Se” case), Thompson presented detailed allegations of election issues in a Clark County District Court. His case focuses on what he calls significant flaws in the November 2024 election, and it’s already making waves.
Thompson spent over a month gathering evidence, diving deep into ballot data, and highlighting concerns about thousands of missing and irregular ballots. He argued that it’s time for regular citizens to step up when they suspect something is wrong with our election process.
While presenting his case, Thompson emphasized that the issues he’s raising aren’t about political parties. In fact, he pointed out that even though his preferred candidate, President Trump, won Nevada, that didn’t stop him from challenging the process.
“It’s not about who wins; it’s about making sure the system is fair,” he told the court.
The Legal Hurdles
The Nevada Secretary of State’s attorneys responded by focusing on procedural issues, saying Thompson’s case wasn’t properly filed and didn’t name any specific candidates as injured parties. While the court didn’t rule in his favor yet, the judge provided a roadmap for how Thompson could revise and resubmit his case.
This means the fight isn’t over. Thompson plans to fix the procedural issues and file an updated case, with some help from legal experts who’ve already offered advice.
A Lone Citizen’s Stand
Thompson’s journey hasn’t been easy.
Despite having funds set aside, he couldn’t find a local attorney willing to represent him – something he attributes to fear of professional backlash for taking on election cases. Still, he pressed on alone, earning respect from those who support his efforts.
About 20 members of the public attended the hearing, showing their support for Thompson’s fight. He sees this group as part of the “Silent Majority” – people who believe there are problems in the election process but don’t know how to take action.
What’s Next?
With the 2026 midterms just around the corner, Thompson believes there’s no time to waste in improving election transparency. He’s encouraging others to join the effort, whether through legal help, public support, or simply by staying informed.
“This isn’t about party lines,” Thompson says. “It’s about making sure every vote is counted properly and that every voter can trust the system.”
As this story continues to unfold, Thompson’s determination is inspiring others to speak up and get involved. Whether his case succeeds or not, it’s clear that the conversation about election integrity is far from over in Nevada.
