Editing Eureka County, Nevada (section)

==Politics==

'''Background'''

Eureka County is strongly Republican; the last time they voted for a Democratic candidate was in [[1964 United States presidential election|1964]], and the last time a Democratic candidate received a quarter of the county's vote was in [[1988 United States presidential election|1988]]. The last time a Republican candidate failed to receive a majority of the county's vote was in [[1992 United States presidential election|1992]], when the vote was somewhat split when independent candidate [[Ross Perot]] recorded approximately a third of the county's vote. In most recent elections Eureka County has shown the strongest Republican leaning out of all Nevada counties.

However, due to the county's low population, its heavy Republican voting does not have a large effect on elections in the state, as a majority of Nevada's population live in Democratic-leaning [[Clark County, Nevada|Clark County]] and [[Washoe County, Nevada|Washoe County]].
