Nevada’s VREMS for Voter Registration Management
This policy brief, Nevada’s VREMS for Voter Registration Management, focuses on the purpose and uses of the Voter Registration and Election Management Solution (VREMS), a centralized system that streamlines voter registration management across the state.
VREMS replaces an older, decentralized system, and aims to improve real-time data updates, security, and list maintenance. The system integrates various databases, such as those maintained by the DMV and ERIC, to detect ineligible voters and help keep accurate records. The system also supports enhanced security through data encryption and automated processes to remove deceased voters and verify address changes.
This brief also explains the introduction of the "PollPad" system for electronic voter check-ins at polling locations and how VREMS interacts with the mail ballot processing system, to help prevent voters from casting multiple ballots.
This policy brief is part of a series of election information briefs produced by the Guinn Center in the fall of 2024. These briefs are funded, in part, by the Democracy Defense Project.
