Ralston just called NV governor race for Joe Lombardo (R)...... so sad

Ralston predicted CCM for senate but Lombardo for governor before election day. He was right sadly if networks call this one.

But I live in Las Vegas and am really pissed. Unfortunately, Sisolak was not a great governor, but he was a democrat. Lombardo is a pro Trump, anti-abortion nut.

Is NV passed a sweeping ERA, which should offer some protections from RW antics for targeted groups.

https://apnews.com/article/2022-midterm-elections-nevada-discrimination-gender-identity-constitutions-a8aa384a6a21c224408cd9603b1b77ce

“Nevada’s ERA amends the state Constitution to ensure equal rights for all, “regardless of race, color, creed, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity or expression, age, disability, ancestry, or national origin.”

It is a more wide-ranging amendment than the federal ERA …”

Did the Lt Gov get elected with Lombardo? And, who is the SOS?

Thank you, Ananda62

In the Nevada Independent. the list of those projected to win statewide offices as of Friday are:

Republican Stavros Anthony, who successfully challenged Lt. Gov. Lisa Cano Burkhead for lieutenant governor

I was worried, but now I see some hope. The lockdowns & numerous scandals hurt Sisolaks big time though

fill out a ballot and when given a chance to correct them they are invisible. Voter systems in this country sucks.
