In yesterday’s Nevada Independent gubernatorial debate aired tonight exclusively on KSNV News 3, Sheriff Joe Lombardo presented a path forward for Nevada families struggling from the impacts of surging inflation and failing education rankings thanks to Governor Steve Sisolak’s and Joe Biden’s policies. In contrast, Sisolak was on defense attempting to distract from his record of scandal and corruption.

Watch the highlights here…

WATCH: Northshore Steve Sisolak fails to take responsibility for awarding a government contract to a shady company on behalf of his campaign donor.

Moderator: “You found out about this months, months before the ProPublica story came out. Why did you not notify the public? Why didn’t you hold a press conference and say this is going on, this is terrible. Everyone should know who got tested by them, they might not be good.”
Sisolak: “We were cooperating.”

WATCH: Steve Sisolak says Joe Biden is a “very good president.”

Moderator: “I know you’re a supporter of Joe Biden, do you think he’s a great president?” 
Sisolak: “I think he’s a very good president.” 

WATCH: Moderator Jon Ralston presses Sisolak on his false ads: “When did you ever say no to a tax increase?”

Moderator: “So this is a serious question, Governor. Taxes were raised under your administration. Let me finish and then you can try to rebut me. You extended a payroll tax and it was then found to be unconstitutional. All these businesses are expecting it to expire and it was found to be unconstitutional, the way you and the legislature – and it also increased a DMV fee that was again found to be unconstitutional. And then you raised taxes on the mining industry, I think you’ll agree with that. There are other fees that you signed too. So this is a serious question, I know it’s going to sound glib, when did you ever say no to a tax increase?”
