Three governor races to watch. Nevada second:
Democratic incumbent Governor Steve Sisolak is facing a strong challenge from GOP nominee Joe Lombardo.
According to FiveThirtyEight’s polling average , Lombardo leads Sisolak by a margin of 45% to 44.8%.
Crime is a top issue in Nevada, and just this week Nevada’s Police Union (NPU) announced a vote of “no confidence” in Sisolak.
“It has become clear that our members believe public safety is not a priority of this governor and that is why they have overwhelmingly declared no confidence in Governor Sisolak to ever address these critical issues,” NPU President Dan Gordon said in a statement regarding Nevada’s depleted police force.
Lombardo, for his part, has earned endorsements from former President Donald J. Trump as well as Ultimate Fighting Championship (UFC) founder Dana White.
Joe Lombardo on Twitter: “Thank you so much for your endorsement and support, @danawhite! Let’s take back our state this November. #Lombardo22 #nvgov pic.twitter.com/ymFdN2HZZu / Twitter”
