The Silver State is home to some of the country's most unique historical landmarks— but city officials around Nevada are looking to develop land and demolish the roots that started the success of this state and brought in the locals we know and love.

Three days after election day, several races in Nevada remain undecided, including the closely watched Senate contest between Sam Brown and Senator Jacky Rosen. Rosen currently leads by just over 18,000 votes.

Dick Ramsey’s bedroom at his daughter’s home in Santa Clarita, California, is a shrine to his long-ago naval service and a ship that was destroyed 76 years ago. There’s a painting of the ship, the USS Nevada, a piece of the Nevada’s teakwood deck, a photo of Ramsey as a young man in uniform, a collection of medals.

Michael Green, history professor at ÐÔÊӽ紫ý, explains Nevada's voting history.

With polls opening up in just a few hours, there's lots of information to keep in mind as you head to cast your ballot for the 2024 general election.

Blue suit, white shirt, red tie... Since his youth, Donald Trump, who is a candidate in the American presidential election and whose results will potentially be broadcast this Tuesday, November 5, has always dressed in his traditional attire. An outfit that has almost become his trademark. "He seems to have worn the same red tie since the 1970s. It seems to have gotten longer," Deirdre Clemente, a history professor at the University of Nevada in Las Vegas, told Sky News. "It's his way of projecting power, confidence and stability," she said.

An outfit for every occasion: this is becoming the motto that sees the two candidates for the White House also focus on their look to win over new voters. In the run-up to the vote, Kamala Harris and Donald Trump have adapted their clothing to the image they want to convey as leaders. Both generally opt for classic clothing: the vice president in a sober suit with heels, the tycoon in his classic dark Brioni suits with red tie. Every time they depart from these "uniforms", as the Wall Street Journal also points out, they are sending strategic messages to voters, in an attempt to reach even the last American who is still undecide

While gamblers outside of the United States have long been able to place bets on who will win the White House, in a historic shift this election cycle, Americans can make political wagers of their own.

We are only a couple of days from Election Day and the race for president remains tight. Pollsters and experts agree it will come down to how voters vote in the battleground states. But not all are created equal. So what are the chances the election could be decided by the smallest swing state?

As Nevada continues through the second week of early voting, one out of three of the state's registered voters has already cast a ballot. More than 697,000 people have voted in the election either in person, through a mail ballot or through the EASE system, according to the Nevada Secretary of State's latest figures released Monday night.

As the story goes, the iconic 40-foot Vegas Vic neon sign on Fremont Street was getting lonely, so it was only natural that he have a partner. Michael Green, ÐÔÊӽ紫ý professor and chair of the history department said Vickie, a 25-foot neon kicking cowgirl was erected in 1980 for obvious reasons. Vegas Vic was first erected in 1951 outside of The Pioneer Club and Vickie was partially created to offer Vic a lady friend.

Vegas Vic, the iconic 40-foot-tall cowboy sign on Fremont Street is a nod to Las Vegas’ original vision, according to local historian Michael Green. Green, who is also a ÐÔÊӽ紫ý professor and chair of the history department, said before Las Vegas became synonymous with things like gambling, casinos and mobsters, the city had a serious frontier connection and — gasp — connection to California.
