Helton v. Nevada Voters First PAC

The Supreme Court affirmed the order of the district court rejecting Appellant's complaint challenging an initiative petition that would, if approved by voters, add two sections to Article 15 of the Nevada Constitution, holding that the district court properly denied relief.

The initiative petition proposed two changes - open primary elections and ranked-choice general elections for specified officeholders. The district court rejected Appellant's complaint challenging the initiative petition. The Supreme Court affirmed, holding (1) even though the initiative petition proposed more than one change to Nevada law, it still met the single-subject requirement; (2) the initiative petition's description of effect was not misleading or inadequate; and (3) Appellant failed to demonstrate that the proposal required the expenditure of money without providing a funding source.
