NV-GOV: Democratic primary winners promise campaign tying Lombardo, Republicans to Trump

Democrats who prevailed in statewide primary races took a victory lap Wednesday in Las Vegas at the Nevada Democratic Party headquarters, promising a general election campaign focused on linking Republican candidates, especially Gov. Joe Lombardo, to President Donald Trump.

The event, featuring gubernatorial candidate and Attorney General Aaron Ford, attorney general nominee Nicole Cannizzaro, and other victorious Democrats, came hours after news the consumer price index reached its highest point in three years as a result of the U.S. war on Iran, prompting Trump to tell reporters “I love the inflation.”

The election “is about electing leaders who will put Nevada families first,” said Democratic Party Chairperson Danielle Monroe-Moreno. “Not their billionaire donors or large corporations. And absolutely not Donald Trump.”

“Today, Nevada, is the beginning of the end of the failed Lombardo-Trump economy,” said Ford, who will face Lombardo in the general election.
