Tuesday, Oct. 19, 2004 | 9:39 a.m.

Democrats are currently leading Republicans in early voting by more than 2,000 people, according to data from Clark County Registrar Larry Lomax.

Another 14,626 voters went to the polls Monday, bringing the three-day total to 41,922. Lomax said 19,140 of those voters were Democrats and 17,036 Republicans.

Democrats hold a 2,115-voter lead in the 1st Congressional District with 13,749 people voting. Incumbent Democrat Shelley Berkley is facing Republican challenger Russ Mickelson in that district.

Republicans have a two-voter lead in the 3rd Congressional District featuring incumbent Republican Jon Porter against Democratic challenger Tom Gallagher. Almost 22,000 people have voted early in that district thus far this election, Lomax said.

Only 511 people have voted in Republican incumbent Jim Gibbons District 2 race against Democrat Angie Cochran.
