It's nice to read a super positive article about the Democratic candidate for Governor in Nevada. We need someone who cares about hard working people. It's a longshot for him to win, but I'm truly hopeful he will. www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

Nevadans are tired of Trump and Lombardo treating them like outcasts when all they’re trying to do is work hard, provide for their families, and build a better life for themselves. It’s time for leadership that sees Nevadans as people, puts families first, and looks out for everyone.

Heck yeah!!! Hopefully this is the beginning of the end for these authoritarian regimes.

The long-serving strongman leader of Serbia, Aleksandar Vucic, has conceded defeat in an election that pitted him and his right-wing party against a diverse student-led opposition movement that spent two years protesting his government.

A Leon County grand jury found that high-ranking state GOP officials diverted $10M meant for children to the GOP's own PACs in the Hope Florida scandal. But if you talk about it, Florida Attorney General James Uthmeier, who is on the ballot, wants to have you arrested. So, def don't talk about it.

Joe Lombardo promised to lower your costs. He’s now asking Trump to spend even MORE tax dollars on the Iran war while Trump's billionaire friends profit. As Governor, my first priority will be making life cost less so EVERY hardworking Nevadan has a real shot at the American dream.

Joe Lombardo is happy to let Nevadans make the choice between groceries and their prescription drugs. Unlike Lombardo, I have fought against drug companies that were raising costs on Nevadans and won.

Incredible. First Secretary Mullin claimed that DHS had identified 15,903 noncitizens on Nevada’s voter roll. Then DHS officials told a skeptical Nevada, no no no, that’s just people we flagged. Here are the names of 185 people we KNOW aren’t citizens. All 185 were citizens. DHS got 100% wrong.

Filled up my tank in Reno and can’t believe these prices. This is what happens when your Governor Joe Lombardo is a human doormat for Trump's Iran war, spending your taxpayer dollars while gas prices soar. This ends when we vote him out in November.

#Editorial: The city of Reno continues to deny public records related to its use of Flock surveillance cameras, including audit logs and images captured by the cameras in public spaces. We think that's a bunch of nonsense, since other police agencies, including Sparks, have produced similar records.

How do you defeat a president who’s trying to sabotage the midterms? 1. Use drop boxes. 2. Vote EARLY in person. 3. If mailing in your ballot, put it in the mail AT LEAST two weeks before Election Day. 4. Vote in person on Election Day. 5. Share these instructions with everyone you know.

Flock cameras raise serious concerns about our right to privacy and until we pass protections into law, I don’t support them. I’ve spent my time as AG protecting Nevadans from Wall Street, Big Pharma, and Big Tech corporations and as Governor, I’ll continue to put working Nevadans first.

The Trump Administration is using $10 million in federal funding as a bargaining chip to make us blindly hand over data on Nevadans. This is a blatant overreach, and I will never stand idly by as Nevadans' privacy is threatened.

I know what it’s like to struggle and right now, too many Nevadans are facing that same pain in this Lombardo-Trump economy. That’s why, as governor, on day one I’ll declare this affordability crisis a state of emergency and immediately begin lowering your costs.
