Nevada’s 2026 primaries spotlight endorsements, women-led races, and tax-credit battles
Nevada’s 2026 primaries produced a mixed bag: Trump-endorsed Republicans fared well alongside Gov. Lombardo-backed candidates, while women dominated several key races, including attorney general and local offices. The film-tax-credit expansion faced defeats, signaling continued union opposition to the policy. Incumbents mostly held, though a few tight races suggested vulnerabilities, and some progressives gained ground in Clark County contests but not statewide. The secretary of state race touched on election-denial rhetoric, and Henderson residents approved a long-running parks levy to fund amenities.
