  We explore the effects that quenched disorder has on discontinuous
nonequilibrium phase transitions into absorbing states. We focus our analysis
on the Naming Game model, a nonequilibrium low-dimensional system with
different absorbing states. The results obtained by means of the finite-size
scaling analysis and from the study of the temporal dynamics of the density of
active sites near the transition point evidence that the spatial quenched
disorder does not destroy the discontinuous transition.
