Three Republicans are vying for the chance to compete against 4th Congressional District incumbent U.S. Rep. Steven Horsford in a midterm election where Republican candidates are saddled with voter frustration over the cost of living and the war with Iran.
Hoping to win the June 9 primary and advance to the general election are small business owner and rancher Cody Whipple, licensed attorney Ronda Kennedy, and pharmacy technician Anthony Snowden.
Horsford won the Southern Nevada seat in 2012, becoming the district’s first representative following the 2010 Census. He lost his re-election bid in 2014 but reclaimed the seat in 2018 and has held it ever since.
Republicans could face an uphill battle to win the seat in the midterms. Democrats outnumber Republicans in active registered voters in the district by more than 20,000, and the Cook Political Report rates the race as “likely D.”
