Cegavske pushed back on the premise of the party’s censure in a statement to the Independent on Sunday. Regrettably, members of my own political party have decided to censure me simply because they are disappointed with the outcome of the 2020 election, Cegavske said. My job is to carry out the duties of my office as enacted by the Nevada Legislature, not carry water for the state GOP or put my thumb on the scale of democracy. Unfortunately, members of my own party continue to believe the 2020 general election was wrought with fraud - and that somehow I had a part in it - despite a complete lack of evidence to support that belief.
