Rep. Dina Titus won Nevada’s 1st District Democratic primary, defeating three challengers and securing her party’s nomination for an eighth term in Congress.
Titus defeated Gabriel Cornejo, Joy Hoover and Luis Paniagua in the Democratic primary. The article says she entered the race as the frontrunner, with support from labor unions and Democratic organizations and a fundraising advantage. Her opponents argued that Democrats should embrace a new generation of leadership, a criticism Titus largely dismissed during the campaign.
The article says Titus pointed to her congressional experience and work on issues important to Southern Nevada voters. Attention now turns to the general election; the Cook Political Report rates the district “Likely Democrat,” while the article notes its D+2 Cook Partisan Voting Index rating.
