Nevada voters will witness one of this year’s most hotly contested gubernatorial battles when they head to the polls in November.
The race pits Democratic Attorney General Aaron Ford against sitting Republican Gov. Joe Lombardo in what political observers are calling one of the most competitive governor’s races nationwide.
Ford, who currently serves as the state’s top law enforcement official, will be looking to flip the governor’s mansion from Republican to Democratic control by unseating the incumbent Lombardo.
The November election will determine which party controls Nevada’s executive branch as both candidates prepare for what promises to be a closely watched and hard-fought campaign.
