Sandoval's office barraged with calls to veto Nevada gun control bill
(snip)
Since the Legislature meets only every other year, legislators would not have a chance to override his veto until the next session in February 2015.
Sandoval will become the first governor in the nation to veto a gun control bill since the Sandy Hook massacre in December that left 20 Connecticut children and six educators shot to death. SB221 would require all purchasers of firearms to go through background checks before they could receive their weapons.
Those who still want to make their views on the bill known to Sandoval can call 775-684-5670. After listening to a message about voting, they need only press 1 to support the bill, or two to oppose it.

That's 775-684-5670. You don't need to be from Nevada to register your approval of background checks.
Thanks.

Looks like it's a "vote early, vote often" sort of deal.
