Teresa Benitez-Thompson (D) has defeated David Flippo (R) in NV-02, a district Trump won by 14 points in 2024. This Democrats sweep 4/4 districts in Nevada, in addition to capturing the governorship and holding both US Senate seats. Trump won this state in 2024.
None of this would be possible if not for the incredible leadership of our fearless @NVDemsChair and North Las Vegas Mayor-Elect, Daniele Monroe-Moreno! The hardest-working Nevadan I know 💜
NV Dems were focused, strategic, and dogged until the very end and we made history:
Elected Nevada’s first ever Black governor, Aaron Ford
Elected the first ever Black woman to hold statewide office, Tya Mathis-Coleman
Flipped an R+14 district and the first Dem to ever win NV-02
Fair warning to mute or block now bc I’m about to be INSUFFERABLE
Democrat Aaron Ford is elected Nevada governor, defeating Republican Gov. Joe Lombardo.

The difference is that the New York Times, which has a lot of credibility with left of center audiences, treated Alaska as a huge scandal while totally ignoring it in Nevada.
Can't get enough of this ratf*ck GOP Nevada mailer that makes it look like a left-wing candidate who shares a last name with the Dem candidate is endorsed by AOC.
It's not just Alaska - this crap is in the DNA of modern campaigns. thenevadaindependent.com/art…

New: 2028ers are descending on Nevada. Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto says her diverse battleground state is a "perfect proving ground" for how Dems can win again.
Dems "can't just be against the current administration ... we have to have ideas"

Speaking of Alaska, look what's happening in Nevada.
A shadow PAC with Republican ties is sending mailers promoting third-party candidate Danielle Ford as the “AOC of Nevada,” falsely implying she has AOC's support, apparently hoping to siphon votes from Democrat Aaron Ford.
AOC has never even spoken to Danielle Ford and is backing Aaron Ford.
All this talk about same name candidates but no one outside of Nevada is talking about the GOP/ Trump/ Team Lombardo propping up Danielle Ford in the closest gov race in the country against Aaron Ford.
Every race rater has NV Gov a toss up and this ploy could be a real spoiler.
When a story about your campaign 5 days out from the election starts with
“Another dead person…”
Woof.
Another dead person appears to have donated to Republican David Flippo’s campaign for Nevada’s 2nd Congressional District.

A Las Vegas business owner welcomed Trump to his restaurant in 2024 on the promise of an economic boom. Two years later, he tells @KyungLahCNN "everything is worse” and he is going bust.
👀 not nothing in a state where Latinos are decisive in determining election outcomes
Line is wrapped around the building for @AaronDFordNV’s town hall with @Carlos_E_Espina!
Nevadans are excited that as Governor, unlike Lombardo, Ford’s number one priority will be to make things cost less — not support cost costly wars.

Andddd @JoeLombardoNV has not once admitted that Trump's Iran War has made gas prices go up
Surely it had nothing to do with the fact that Trump is Lombardo's "commanding officer"
Just a coincidence, I'm sure!!!!!
Andddd, @JoeLombardoNV asked Aaron Ford to take legal action against Gavin Newsom over California’s refinery mandates, but Ford refused.
Surely it had nothing to do with the fact that Ford was courting Newsom’s endorsement at the time…an endorsement he later received.
Just a coincidence, I’m sure!!!
Nevada is a critical battleground in 2026 -- we are a bellwether. And in 2028, we will be Democrats' first true test in the nominating process.
If you're not paying attention yet, there's still time to tune in.
Nevada Democrats are feeling popular.
The state's competitive 2026 ballot has made the early voting state a hotspot for 2028 hopefuls because..."If you can win in Nevada as a Democrat, you can win in the rest of the country."

In today’s @playbookdc — We have eyes and ears everywhere… 👀
@SenatorSlotkin and @SenCortezMasto spotted having lunch at 1228 Main in Las Vegas’ Arts District. Slotkin was overhead sharing her assessment of the Dem Senate field — talking about the need to appeal to independents in Michigan, feeling confident about Ohio too but fearing she’ll “get her heart broken again in Texas.” w/ @adamwren
