Voters To Decide Contentious Primary Races Tuesday

Tuesday voters head to the polls for Nevada’s primary elections, where they will choose the candidates in some highly contentious races.

This weekend, Hillary Clinton announced her support for Democratic gubernatorial candidate Chris Giunchigliani.

Giunchigliani is facing off against fellow Clark County Commissioner Steve Sisolak.

Both have poured millions into heated campaign advertisements. According to a report in the New York Times, former Senate majority leader Harry Reid said he was worried that if Giunchigliani wins, major casino executives would throw their money behind Republican Candidate Adam Laxalt.

Laxalt is the strong favorite to win the GOP ticket, against state treasurer Dan Schwartz and bike shop owner Jared Fisher.
