Nevada Republicans urge Sharon resignation from Senate
The May 12 1880 report from Elko recalls the Republican county convention urging United States Senator William Sharon to resign his seat. The resolution asks the State Convention to adopt a call for resignation, citing his non residency and failure to represent Nevada. Some delegates resisted, preferring fall convention action, yet observers expect further protests from Eastern Nevada and possibly Humboldt. Sharon is portrayed as seeking re election through money.

Nevada Delegates Vote Blaine Under Western Plan
The Nevada Republican Convention instructed its delegates to vote for Blaine for the nomination. Eastern Nevada outnumbered the West, with most delegates pro Blaine, except C C Stevenson who backed an unpledged slate. Nevada is pledged six Blaine votes, despite newspapers opposing uninstructed delegates. The Virginia Enterprise and Gold Hill News urged for an uninstructed Grant slate, and corporate interests reportedly influence the Virginia and Truckee Railroad as the public drifts away from them.
