GOP Rivals in Toss-Up Nevada Congressional District Plot Primary Campaign’s Final Days

Nevada State Assembly Member Ann Black (R-Mesquite) says she doesn’t need polls to confirm that her campaign is gaining steam and will roll to a win on June 14 in the Republican primary in the state’s Congressional District 4. To advance to November’s general election against two-term incumbent US. Rep. Steven Horsford (D-North Las Vegas), Black will need to get past Las Vegas businessman Sam Peters, who's equally convinced that he’s winning next week’s Republican primary. Photo provided
