First-time officeholders
Politicians on NV GOP Electeds whose offices_held record contains only their current office — no prior elected office. Useful for tracking new entrants or for "fresh perspective" coverage angles.
252 of 284 politicians are first-time officeholders by this measure. Note: missing prior offices could mean either truly first-time OR data not yet captured — verify via NV SOS Aurora candidate-history search before claiming.
