round one of donald trump's efforts to make a case of illegal voting against clark county came up empty today..... a district judge denied a motion filed that would have made the names of poll workers at early voting sites in las vegas....public record. trumps representatives argued that access would shed light on the late ballots on the last day of early voting friday night... fox-5's vince sapienza was at the hearing.... and has more from what went on inside the courtroom... john..christine... the hearing lasted forty minutes..... and more than 30 was greg hardy... trumps representatives... pleading and arguing their case.... today was not about.. whether or not their was an illegal number of people allowed to vote at the polls.. instead it was about the preservation of possible evidence.... now state law requires clark county to keep all of their data and logs at the early voting polls for a minimum of 22 months.... but they are not required to hand over the identities of the poll workers... that is what donald trumps reps were asking the court to allow today....

investigation to any illegal voting...they can contact those who were working to find out what happened... judge gloria sturman explained she would not pass a motion that opens workers doing their civic duty.. to ridicule and harassment... "we're asking you to preserve evidence in case it's necessary, that's it, bottom line, if the secretary of state looks at this and says we don't even need that, we know something wrong happened here, then i don't need it either, because if she knows it's wrong, than it's wrong." "why would i order them to make available to you information of peop polls when it's not already a pubnlic requirement to do so people can be harrassed when they are just doing their civic duty." now during the hearing... clark county registrar joe gloria.. through his council expressed a willingness to give the names of the workers if there were to be an investigation... but...again...the judge refused to pass the motion... saying if gloria and clark county are willing to do that... that is their right... neither side commented after the hearing....

one say there's a big loophole for people who tried to buy a gun outside of a gun shop for example at a gun show and they say this solving this loophole won't solve every problem but even if one life is safe it's worth it most of the sheriffs in nevada are against it except for sheriff joe lombardo in clark county he's neutral the nra is against it the governor is against it joe heck is against it... but the district attorney for clark county is for it all these people who are against it say this punishes responsible law- abiding gun owners it causes more restrictions more red tape and if you don't follow the rules because their complex they're understand that could lend you one year in prison real quick i want to talk to the owner here at the gun shop we actually haven't been here that long and there's already been one customer who came and tried to buy a gun but he wasn't allowed to because he didn't pass his background check my question for you is if question one the way it is right now could he go to a gun show and buy a gun without having to go through a background

day? we asked local and federal authorities who oversee clark county polling places. this has been a very contentious election season. there's been a lot of claims, remarks about security it will go, if it's rigged such a perception is extremely dangerous. as it casts doubt upon the validity and outcome of our elections and in turn the legitimacy of our democratic system of government. that's f-b-i agent in charge aaron rouse (roose). we asked him about nevada's touchscreen voting system. nv uses the most reliable voting system found anywhere in the world
5:25 pm
widely considered the most secure electronic voting system in use. metro police officers will be monitoring all of clark county's 278 polling locations, and will physically escort the ballots. metro is involved in ensuring the ballots get to the pollig location for the final count each election night the f-b-i special agent in charge also told fox5 hacking into nevada's voter system is physically impossible because none of the machines are connected to the internet. he also said our country doesn't have a single national voting system, so it can't be hacked or manipulated to alter the outcome of the presidential election. there's much more coming up in the second half of fox5 news at 5. nevada is one of a handful of states voting to legalize recreational marijuana. we'll take you
