LAS VEGAS (KTNV) — Clark County issued a statement on Thursday addressing former President Donald Trump's recent comments claiming the presence of corruption in Nevada's election system.
In a series of posts on his social media platform, Truth Social, Trump claimed Clark County, and Arizona, were running "corrupt voting systems."
Clark county officials responded by saying Trump's comments were "outrageous" and that the former president is "misinformed" on election processes.
"First, we could not speed up the process even if we wanted to," the statement read. "Nevada state law requires us to accept and process all mail ballots received before 5 p.m. Saturday, Nov. 12, if they are postmarked on or before Election Day."
