NV-AD04: Both parties like their chances in 'purple' Assembly District 4

A commercial development executive and the founder of an addiction services nonprofit are facing off in a Nevada swing district where Gov. Joe Lombardo hopes a Republican victory will help break the Democrats’ current Assembly supermajority.

With a Republican incumbent not seeking re-election, development professional Lisa Cole is the Republican hoping to keep Assembly District 4 in the northwest Las Vegas Valley red. The Democrat, addiction services provider Ryan Hampton, is hoping to put the district back in the Democratic column.

Republicans have a slight voter registration edge in AD 4, with 16,127 active Republican registered voters compared to 15,087 active registered Democratic voters, and 15,846 active nonpartisan voters.

“I think this district is about as moderate and purple as it gets,” Hampton said. “The very fact that it has been held by Republicans and Democrats and has swung both ways in the last few years goes to show you that voters look beyond partisan identities when making their decisions.”
