A financial adviser and Iraq War Air Force combat commander, a former North Las Vegas mayor, and an accountant who is also an attorney are vying to win the Republican nomination on June 11 to take on three-term incumbent Rep. Steven Horsford (D-Nev.) in November.

Nevada’s Fourth District 4 (CD4) is one of three Las Vegas-area congressional districts represented by Democrat incumbents who have survived contests since 2018 to retain their House seats. In the 2022 midterms, Mr. Horsford defeated Republican Sam Peters by 4.8 percentage points, or nearly 11,000 votes.
