12 p.m. Tuesday update:

A Clark County judge denied the Donald Trump campaign’s request to force the Clark County registrar to preserve records from several voting spots in the county.

Judge Gloria Sturman cited current law, which already requires ballots be kept but in secret, as well as a hasty attempt on the Trump campaign’s part. Part of her concern was making volunteer poll workers’ names public, which she felt could lead to harassment.

"I am not going to expose people doing their civic duty to help their fellow citizens vote ... to public attention, ridicule and harassment," she said.

Sturman also said she did not like the idea of sequestering ballots with the intention of potentially opening them and making them public.

"That is offensive to me because it seems to go against the very principle that a vote is secret," she said.

Original story:

The Donald Trump campaign has filed complaints in Nevada alleging polling place "anomalies" during early voting in the Las Vegas area.

A lawsuit filed Tuesday in state court in Las Vegas asks a judge to order the Clark County registrar of voters to impound and preserve records from four voting spots that complaints say stayed open too late last Friday.

A morning hearing is scheduled in Clark County District Court on the filing, which refers to a voting irregularities complaint filed with the Nevada Secretary of State.

Long lines kept polls open past the 7 p.m. posted closing time at sites including a Mexican market and several shopping centers, including one in southeast Las Vegas where officials say the last voter cast a ballot after 10 p.m.

State Republican party chief Michael McDonald has also criticized the process.

A lawyer for Democrat Hillary Clinton's campaign dismissed the legal action in Nevada with a Tweet calling it "a frivolous lawsuit."
