Election 2026: Two incumbent Clark County judges are defeated

Two incumbent Clark County District Court judges lost their seats in Tuesday's election while the status of a third judge remains in question depending on how many votes are still left to be counted. Judge Jerry Wiese, who has sat in the Department 30 civil/criminal seat since 2011, was trailing attorney Josh Santeramo by 2 percent early Thursday morning, according to the Clark County Election Department. Santeramo has practiced law for 15 years, including 10 years in private practice and five years with the Nevada Attorney for Injured Workers, a state agency. He had 50.8 percent of the vote. Family Court Judge Bill Henderson, who has been in Department R since 2008, was defeated by family law attorney Marilyn Caston, who earned 60 percent of the vote. Caston has practiced family law for more than 16 years. She is a junior partner at Nevada Family Law Group. One civil/crimial District Court race is still in question.
