How we determined the most liberal cities in Nevada for 2019

We started by making a list of every city in Nevada over 7,000 people based on the 2013-2017 American Community Survey (The most recent data). That left us with 12 cities and towns.

We then measured the voting record and donation data to determine which places lean the most rightward in their allegiances by:

1. Percentage Of Registered Democrats
2. # Of Contributions To Democrats Per Capita
3. $ Amount Contributed To Democrats Per Capita

Next, we ranked each city from 1 to 12 for each of the criteria where number one was the most liberal.

The winner, Mesquite, is “The Most liberal City in Nevada For 2019”.
