Nevada Political Leaders Endorse Gov. Ron DeSantis for President
ATLANTA, Ga. – Political leaders across the state of Nevada are announcing their support for Governor Ron DeSantis to be the next President of the United States. These 24 endorsements announced by Never Back Down include current and former state legislators, county commissioners and clerks, and state controllers. Gov. DeSantis’s momentum only continues to grow in key states, like Nevada, as more and more voters learn his story and message, and Never Back Down will keep building out the necessary infrastructure and support network that will take the Governor to the White House.
“Governor DeSantis understands the importance of working hard to earn votes and will put the American people first. He was the first candidate this cycle to visit Nevada where he met with fellow veterans, headlined the Basque Fry to over 2,500 people, and was the first presidential candidate in modern history to visit the Reno rodeo. He served our country honorably before as a Navy JAG officer in Iraq, and Nevadans know he will honorably serve us again as our next President, always fighting to protect our families, fix our economy, and achieve the great American comeback,” said Former Nevada Attorney General and Never Back Down Chair Adam Laxalt.
“Governor Ron DeSantis has a proven track record of standing up against the radical Left to protect our children and our freedoms. While the establishment and DC elites empowered Fauci to lock our country down and let the mob run rampant, Gov. DeSantis was the only one fighting back for our kids. He stands for America’s families and conservative values and that’s why Nevadans are standing with him,” said State Assemblywoman Danielle Gallant.
“Nevada Republicans are tired of losing to the Radical Left and Republicans who make promises but don’t deliver. We need a new conservative champion, who fights the radical left, wins those battles, and helps elect a team of conservatives on his coattails. We know Gov. Ron DeSantis is the only conservative who can beat Joe Biden and take back the White House while helping Republicans down-ballot take back our state. He did it in Florida and he will do the same for Nevada and our country. As the first presidential candidate this cycle to visit Nevada, he sent a strong signal to Nevadans that he’ll put them first as our next President, and that sentiment is resonating across the state,” said State Assemblywoman Jill Dickman.
