DLCC Announces Slate of Targets in Nevada
WASHINGTON—Today, the DLCC announced nine new Target Races in Nevada, where the Assembly is on our Target Map as we aim to flip at least one seat to create a supermajority, and as we also strengthen our majority in the Senate. These five Assembly targets and three Senate targets are must-win races to set Democrats up to make meaningful gains in Nevada.
The DLCC is also announcing Sandra Jauregui as a Target Race candidate as she competes to flip the Lieutenant Governor’s seat, given that this role presides over the Senate.
The DLCC is working directly with the Nevada Democratic Caucuses and Target Race candidates to deliver support and resources for data, research, polling, paid communication, and direct voter contact. 2026 is a historic opportunity to shift the balance of power across the country and build durable power in Nevada, and the DLCC has the Target Map and strategy to meet this moment.
Democratic Legislative Campaign Committee President Heather Williams issued the following statement:
“2026 is a historic opportunity to grow Democratic power in Nevada. Nevada Assembly Democrats are just one seat away from a supermajority that will give them greater leverage to push back on GOP attempts to obstruct common-sense policies to support working families. The DLCC has been on the ground in Nevada for years building Democratic power, and we are proud to support this strong slate of candidates for the Assembly, Senate, and Lieutenant Governor races. This is one of the toughest battleground states in the nation, and the DLCC is all hands on deck to support these candidates to seize this once-in-a-generation opportunity downballot in November.”
