Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo argued that President Biden's 'failure to rein in national inflation' could cost him the election as voters in his state find the current economy 'unsustainable.' 'Since Mr. Biden took office, prices have risen 19 percent, a major factor in real average weekly earnings dropping 4 percent. This type of economic turmoil is simply unsustainable for Nevada families,' the Republican wrote in a New York Times guest essay.
Nevada voters prefer Trump to Biden on handling the economy and immigration, with the former president holding 16- and 22-point leads, respectively, according to the June Fox News poll. A recent Bloomberg News/Morning Consult survey also found Trump leads Biden 48% to 44% across the seven key swing states in play — Arizona, Georgia, Michigan, Nevada, North Carolina, Pennsylvania and Wisconsin. Fox News' Aubrie Spady and Andrew Murray contributed to this report.
