In the primary race for Clark County Commission, Michael Naft, Ross Miller and William McCurdy II were leading in Districts A, C and D, respectively.
Only about 12% of ballots were counted, with results from the mainly mail-in election expected to trickle in throughout the week.
The winners will advance to the general election on Nov. 3.
Four of the seven commission seats are up for grabs, with termed-out Commissioners Larry Brown and Vice Chairman Lawrence Weekly leaving their seats, C and D.
Naft, the incumbent in District A, was leading challenger Ken “Sully” O’Sullivan with 71.41% of the vote. Naft was appointed to the seat last year by Gov. Steve Sisolak.
Naft previously worked as the district director for U.S. Rep. Dina Titus, D-Nev., from 2013 to 2019.
Miller, an attorney and former Nevada secretary of state, led the District C race with 42.87% of the vote against five challengers, Patsy Brown, Hunter Cain, Gary Hosea, Jenny Penney and Fayyaz Raja.
McCurdy, with 41.8% of the vote, was leading in District D against six challengers, North Las Vegas City Councilman Isaac Barron, state Sen. Mo Denis, Tanya Flanagan, Deepen Kothari, Jesus Moreno and Dillard Allen Scott .
McCurdy currently serves as chair of the the Nevada State Democratic Party and is an assemblyman for Nevada's 6th District. He grew up in West Las Vegas and is an ardent proponent for his neighborhood.
With only one Republican candidate for each district, Michael Thomas will advance to the general election in District A. District C will see Republican Las Vegas City Councilman Stavros Anthony on the ballot in November.
In District D, the Democratic primary winner will run against independents David Goosen, Henry Thorns and Stanley Washington.
The general election in District B will pit Marilyn Kirkpatrick, the incumbent and chairwoman of the commission, against Republican Kevin Williams. Neither has a primary challenger.
