Nevada’s latest voter roll cleanup—canceling 162,519 registrations and inactivating another 37,749—might look like progress to some, but let’s not kid ourselves.
This is nothing more than a pathetic Band-Aid slapped on a gaping wound.
Secretary of State Francisco Aguilar can spin his talking points about “transparency” and “security” all day long, but the reality is simple: this does absolutely nothing to fix the real, systemic problems plaguing Nevada’s elections.
We’re the laughingstock of the country, folks. Our elections are a mess, and the rest of America knows it. Clark County alone dumped 135,266 voter registrations—but only sent out 35,845 notices. That’s less than 27%.
And they expect us to believe this is a “serious” cleanup?
This isn’t about scrubbing the rolls of the dead, the moved, or the long-gone. This is election theater. Aguilar and his office are patting themselves on the back while ignoring the fact that inactive voters can still vote under the National Voter Registration Act.
Are you kidding me? That’s not a safeguard—it’s a gaping loophole for fraud. And anyone pretending otherwise is either misinformed or complicit.
Now let’s talk about Assembly Bill 534—yet another calculated move to cripple grassroots oversight.
Under this law, you need “personal knowledge” to challenge a fraudulent registration. What does that even mean? Are citizens supposed to spy on neighbors and conduct stakeouts?
This isn’t oversight—it’s an intentional gag order on patriots like Chuck Muth, who’ve been ringing alarm bells about fraudulent activity for years. And why? Because they know what he’ll uncover when the veil gets pulled back.
Let’s not forget the rotten core of this whole operation—ERIC, the Electronic Registration Information Center.
Aguilar loves to point to ERIC as Nevada’s voter roll watchdog. But here’s the truth: ERIC was seed-funded by George Soros’ Open Society Foundations. That’s not a theory—that’s a documented fact (Gateway Pundit, 2023).
Even worse? ERIC doesn’t focus on purging ineligible voters—it requires states to conduct outreach to unregistered but eligible voters. Translation? It’s a government-funded voter drive that leans political in all the wrong ways.
No wonder nine states—including Texas, Florida, and Louisiana—have dumped it entirely (Texas Tribune, 2023).
And now? Even overseas, Soros-backed operations are getting raided by foreign governments.
In March 2025, Indian authorities raided multiple offices of the Open Society Foundations for alleged violations of foreign funding laws and financial manipulation. These aren’t isolated events. This is a global pattern of influence hiding behind a mask of “democracy” (Indian Express, 2025).
So, no—this isn’t reform. This is damage control, pure and simple.
Here’s the bottom line:
This is not election integrity. It’s a photo op—a smoke show for headlines, while the real vulnerabilities are left untouched. Nevada is still wide open to fraud, abuse, and manipulation.
And what’s worse, Francisco Aguilar isn’t fixing anything—he’s showboating for his next election. This is all about optics. All about power. And all about staying in office.
We don’t need PR stunts. We need real reform.
We need watermarked paper ballots, hand-counted at the precinct, on one day, with machines as a backup, not a crutch. Anything less is an insult to every Nevadan who still believes voting is a sacred right—not a rigged game.
It’s time to stop pretending this is fixed.
It’s time to clean house for real.
And it starts with telling the truth.
