Plenty of counties in the US will elect you to Sherriff without any experience at all. Just say the right Tough On Crime rhetoric and you're good to go.
And here’s a reminder that, following the horrible shooting at Uvalde and the police’s staggeringly bad response, they still reelected the local sheriff.

Actually, this is Clark County Indiana (not Nevada). But I'm sure there is plenty of corruption to go around.
