They cancel hearings and never EVER inform anyone that court was cancelled. So you're just left to sit outside of the courtroom for hours until someone comes out to tell you that someone should have called you. This is extremely unprofessional

Tammy Vopat has done a stellar job for Lyon County, and has followed laws meticulously in elections. Although I know many of the employees and polling place workers, they never ever have failed to look over my driver's license before they continue on to producing and handing me my ballot. Tammy and her staff has set a standard for election officials nationwide.
