Sheriff Joe Lombardo (not that Sheriff Joe) is running for governor of Nevada and is leading his Democrat opponent, incumbent Governor Steve Sisolak in the polls. In a recent Club for Growth poll, Lombardo edges Sisolak by 1 percentage point. Breitbart’s Jordan Dixon-Hamilton reports:

Lombardo earned 48 percent of Nevada voters’ support, compared to Sisolak’s 47 percent. The Club for Growth poll is the first released after Lombardo secured the Republican nomination for governor in the state’s primary on Tuesday.

With the help of an endorsement from former President Donald Trump, Lombardo easily secured victory on Tuesday night by a margin of nearly 20,000 votes.

“As Governor, Joe will fiercely Protect our under-siege Second Amendment, Oppose Sanctuary Cities, Support our Law Enforcement, Veto any Liberal Tax Increase, Protect Life, and Secure our Elections. Joe Lombardo is the leader Nevada needs, and he has my Complete and Total Endorsement for Governor,” Trump said in his endorsement.

The poll also found that President Joe Biden’s unpopularity could harm Sisolak in the November election.

Action Line: Joe Biden’s terrible performance, and Democrats’ decisions to strangle their economies during Covid lockdowns, are going to be remembered by voters when they get to the polls. Voters want to live in a Super State, not in lockdown despair. Electing politicians like Joe Lombardo will get them there.
