TYSONS CORNER, Va. – Precinct captains in Nevada have been provided with a unique piece of equipment to break ties in Saturday's caucuses – a deck of cards.
According to the Nevada Democratic Party, if two caucus groups are tied, each group will “draw a single card from a deck of cards to break the tie.”
The high card decides the winner, with aces high. If the same ranked card is drawn, then the suit determines the higher card, going from the highest to lowest suit: spades, hearts, diamonds, clubs.
