Biden tells Nevadans to 'vote early' during drive-in Las Vegas campaign event

It was his second Las Vegas stop of the day. In the morning, Biden met with Latino leaders at the East Las Vegas Community Center and courted their coveted vote by saying they could determine the outcome of the election.
