Nevada voters will choose who represents them in the U.S. House across all four congressional districts, a rare sweep that puts every seat on the ballot at once. In District 1, Titus is seeking another term after holding the seat since 2013, while the field in the other districts stretches from seasoned officeholders to first-time congressional hopefuls.
That makes David Flippo part of a statewide decision that reaches far beyond one campaign. Readers searching now want the map, the names and the resumes before the voting begins, and this round-up lays out who is in the mix in Districts 1, 3 and 5 while showing how the races are being framed for Nevada voters in Clark County and beyond.
Titus brings the longest federal record in the field. She served in the Nevada Senate from 1993 to 2009, including years as State Senate Minority Leader, and now sits on the House Foreign Affairs Committee and the House Transportation and Infrastructure Committee. Her role as ranking member of the Subcommittee on Railroads, Pipelines, and Hazardous Materials gives her campaign a built-in argument that experience still matters when voters weigh who should keep the seat.
Lee also enters the cycle with an incumbent’s advantage in District 3. He has held the seat since 2019, serves on the House Appropriations Committee and belongs to both the bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus and New Democrats Coalition. Horsford is asking for another term as well, pointing to service in the Nevada Senate from 2004 to 2012, his election to Congress in 2012 and his return to the House in 2019. He says his priorities include lowering costs for workers and families, restoring cuts to health care and nutrition programs, setting limits on ICE and expanding access to housing. He also cites the bipartisan Road to Housing Act as one answer to corporate practices he says have pushed housing costs higher.
The open question in the rest of the ballot is whether biography or message will matter more than party cues. O'Donnell has President Trump’s endorsement, yet his profile is built on a different lane, with work as a musician, composer and audio director, a degree from Wheaton College and a graduate degree from the University of Southern California. Whipple, who grew up in Hiko, built a small business over 25 years, manages his family’s cattle ranch and says he created Nevada’s first-of-its-kind digital two-way communication network. He wants to unify the district and keep his campaign tied to local concerns. Best, meanwhile, brings a Navy background, mortgage-broker experience and prior runs for Congress in Nevada and for governor.
For voters, the choice is not abstract. It runs through incumbency, ideology and local resume, from Titus and Horsford’s legislative records to Whipple’s business pitch and O'Donnell’s Trump-backed bid. What happens next is simple: Nevada voters will decide all four districts, and the winner in each one will set the next House delegation from the state.
