据CBS新闻预测，民主党人亚伦·福特赢得了内华达州州长选举，击败了现任州长乔·隆巴多。此前该州因关税问题和旅游业下滑而陷入困境。
曾两次当选为州总检察长的福特，将成为内华达州首位黑人州长，也是密西西比河以西各州中首位当选的黑人州长。

2022年首次当选的温和派共和党人隆巴多拥有巨额竞选资金，但无法克服该州经济困境带来的挑战。内华达州最大城市拉斯维加斯的经济依赖旅游业，在特朗普总统执政期间，来自加拿大等国家的国际游客数量出现下降。内华达州也受到关税的沉重打击。
特朗普在2024年以3个百分点的优势赢得内华达州，成为自2004年以来首位赢得该州的共和党总统候选人。
尽管隆巴多吹捧自己与民主党主导的州议会合作取得的成就，但福特成功将他与全国共和党及特朗普关联起来。根据诺贝尔预测洞察公司10月进行的一项民调，58%的内华达州居民不认可特朗普的执政表现。
周二，民主党在全国范围内取得令人瞩目的胜利，包括在民主党拿下了涵盖该州北部的第2国会选区的内华达州。

Democrat Aaron Ford won the Nevada governor’s race, CBS News projects, defeating incumbent Gov. Joe Lombardo as the state struggled because of tariffs and a decline in tourism.
Ford, who has been elected statewide twice as attorney general, will be Nevada’s first Black governor and the first Black governor elected in a state west of the Mississippi.

Lombardo, a moderate Republican who was first elected in 2022, had a massive war chest, but was unable to overcome the challenges stemming from the state’s economic woes. Nevada’s largest city, Las Vegas, is driven by tourism and has seen a dropoff in international tourists under President Trump, particularly from Canada. Nevada has also been hit hard by tariffs.
Mr. Trump won Nevada by three points in 2024, the first Republican presidential candidate to win the state since 2004.
Although Lombardo touted his successes with the Democratic-led state legislature, Ford successfully tied him to national Republicans and Mr. Trump. According to an October poll by Noble Predictive Insights, 58% of Nevada residents disapprove of Mr. Trump’s performance.
Democrats racked up stunning wins across the country on Tuesday, including Nevada, where Democrats flipped the 2nd District that encompasses the northern part of the state.
