SOURCE CHECK
TAP FOR WHYThe Las Vegas Review-Journal is an established regional newspaper, and the article identifies its reporter and a contributing staff writer. The brief results report gives specific vote figures but does not identify their source.

HOW WE SCORE ↗The report covers both party primaries and includes reactions from their winners, but it offers little broader sourcing or detail from the losing candidates.
