The Nevada legislature is one of 15 state legislatures with term limits. Voters enacted the Nevada Term Limits Act in 1996. That initiative said that Nevada representatives are subject to term limits of no more than six two-year terms, or a total of twelve years.[1]

The first year that the term limits enacted in 1996 impacted the ability of incumbents to run for office was 2010.

### Vacancies[edit]

If there is a vacancy in the Nevada State Legislature, the board of county commissioners in the county representing the seat must decide on a replacement. The board of county commissioners must select a person from the same political party that last held the seat when making its decision. If the vacancy happens before the next legislative session and an election for county officers is scheduled, no replacement is named.[4]

## Redistricting[edit]

### 2020-2022[edit]

See also: Redistricting in Nevada after the 2020 census

Governor Steve Sisolak (D) signed new legislative maps into law on November 16, 2021.[5] These maps take effect for Nevada's 2022 legislative elections. On November 14, 2021, the Nevada State Senate voted 12-9 to approve the Democratic congressional and legislative map proposals.[6] On November 16, the Nevada State Assembly voted 25-17 to approve the maps.[7]

How does redistricting in Nevada work? In Nevada, both congressional and state legislative district boundaries are drawn by the state legislature. The lines are subject to veto by the governor.[8]

Under a state law enacted in 2019, state prison inmates are counted as residents of their home addresses for redistricting purposes.[9]
