Trump or Harris? How do nonpartisans break? The Nevada Independent breaks down the most compelling storylines we’re following on decision day.

Although former President Donald Trump won the district in 2016, Lee has represented it since 2019, winning re-election in 2020 by 3 percentage points and by 4 points in 2022, after it was redrawn to be more favorable to Democrats.  

From July through September, Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-NV) raised about $3.5 million more than her GOP opponent, Sam Brown. In the three House races in Southern Nevada, Democrats raked in hundreds of thousands more than their opponents.

Bipartisan majorities of Nevadans support raising taxes and/or cutting benefits to maintain the solvency of Social Security — defying conventional wisdom that changes to the popular retirement program are politically unthinkable.

Gov. Joe Lombardo (R) has put his thumb on the scale in Congressional District 3 once again, endorsing video game music composer Marty O’Donnell in the Republican primary to take on Rep. Susie Lee (D-NV).

After so many unsuccessful pulls at the electoral slot machine, have national House Republicans moved on from Las Vegas?
