Nevada incumbents hold their seats in closely fought contest for the House majority

All three of Nevada’s incumbent House Democrats have won re-election in their Las Vegas-based seats — an expected result after Democrats far outspent Republican candidates who were largely left to fend for themselves by national GOP groups, but uncomfortably close at times for Rep.

Rep. Dina Titus (D-NV), whose district is reliably the safest for Democrats, won a rematch against 2022 candidate Mark Robertson in Congressional District 1.

Lee, running in the swingy Congressional District 3, beat tax analyst and conservative opinion columnist Drew Johnson.

And in Congressional District 4, which includes both North Las Vegas and vast swaths of rural Nevada, Rep. Steven Horsford (D-NV) defeated former North Las Vegas Mayor John Lee.

Republicans paid the races little attention after coming away empty-handed in 2022. Two years ago, national Republican groups poured $28 million into these districts, with Lee’s race attracting special attention and operatives believing that the path to a House majority ran through Las Vegas.
