You may register to vote at any NV Department of Motor Vehicles office, at your county clerk or registrar of voters' office, at various social service agencies, and on college campuses.

Detailed information about Same-Day Registration can be found on the Nevada Secretary of State's website.
The 2017 legislature approved Senate Bill 144, which allows all U.S. citizens who are 17 years old but less than 18 years old to preregister to vote. A person can preregister to vote using any of the means available for a person to register to vote, including online at www.RegisterToVote.NV.gov. A person who has preregistered to vote is automatically deemed registered to vote on his or her 18th birthday unless the person's preregistration is cancelled.
