Vice President Kamala Harris smiles during a visit to Los Angeles Cleantech Incubator Monday, April 17, 2023, in Los Angeles.

President Joe Biden is out of the race for president. Vice President Kamala Harris is the presumptive candidate.

And of course, the mudslinging has begun. Former President Donald Trump calls Harris a "fake candidate." Experts say there could be be legal challenges to the $250 million campaign war chest collected on behalf of Biden.

And there’s both excitement and a little trepidation on behalf of voters. What’s this all mean, especially in the battleground state of Nevada?


Guests: Ken Miller, assistant professor of political science, University of Nevada, Las Vegas; Shelbie Swartz, executive director, Battle Born Progress
