Oct 22, 2018 at 21:39 comment added Nate Eldredge In fact, it seems to me that it might be possible to adapt Darst's "gliding hump" argument to prove this statement. But it may take some thought.
Oct 22, 2018 at 4:09 comment added Nate Eldredge This question has connections to an old question of mine. In particular, if the condition here had "Borel sets" instead of "open sets" then the claim would be true by the result of Darst cited in my answer (there might be an earlier result of Nikodym that suffices in this case). And if the answer to this question is yes, then it will give another counterexample to my Q2.

Oct 21, 2018 at 18:33 comment added Nate Eldredge To illustrate why this is tricky, the following non-example is interesting. Let $X = \mathbb{N} \cup \{\infty\}$, and let $\nu_n = n(\delta_{n+1} - \delta_n)$ with $\nu = 0$. This sequence doesn't converge weakly. It doesn't satisfy the hypothesis either - take $O$ to be the set of odd integers - but it is not so clear how to "produce" that set.
Oct 21, 2018 at 18:14 comment added Christian Remling This is essentially the same as asking if this condition implies that $\nu_n$ is bounded, that is, $\sup |\nu_n|(X)<\infty$, since the claim is almost trivial in that case ("see" my failed attempt at an answer), and obviously this boundedness is necessary for weak $*$ convergence.
Oct 21, 2018 at 16:35 comment added André Porto So, my answer lacks some arguments, so I deleted it. It is true for positive measures, though. But I don't know for signed measures
Oct 21, 2018 at 15:34 comment added user3522356 @AndréPorto, mustn't we have $\sup_O |\nu_n(O) - \nu(O)|\to 0$ for strong convergence?
Oct 21, 2018 at 15:33 comment added André Porto By the outter regularity, this condition implies that $\nu_n$ is strongly convergent to $\nu$, doesn't it?
