THURSDAY, OCT. 20, UPDATE: “PROBABLY WILL PASS.” A leading Nevada Republican told the Granite Status this afternoon her party will “probably” approve a move of the state's GOP presidential caucus from Jan. 14 back to Feb. 4.
“It probably will pass,” said Heidi Smith, a Republican National Committeewoman from Nevada. “I can't tell you for sure, but it probably will pass.”
She said a vote on the date change will be taken on Saturday at a Nevada Republican Central Committee meeting.
Smith said Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval's change of position on the issue today was significant.
Last week, Sandoval was firm on keeping the Nevada caucus on Jan. 14.
Today, however, he told the Las Vegas Sun he was supportive of efforts underway by the Republican National Committee and GOP officials in Nevada, New Hampshire and Iowa to resolve the issue.
