(Samuel Wonacot) Five candidates are running in the June 14 Republican primary for Nevada’s 3rd Congressional District. Incumbent Susie Lee, who was first elected in 2018, is running in the Democratic primary.

April Becker, John Kovacs, and Noah Malgeri have led in fundraising and media attention.

Becker runs April Becker & Associates, a law practice, and owns several small businesses with her husband. She listed the economy, border security and crime rates, and education as the top issues facing the state. Becker said, “I think Susie Lee doesn’t care about people. I think she is in this job for the wrong reasons. In contrast, I care about the people who I am going to work for. … That has been my motivator for everything I have done my entire life. Going to law school, my pro bono work, my senate and congressional race … it is going to be me fighting for the people I work for.” U.S. House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Ca.) and the Nevada Republican Party endorsed Becker.

Kovacs is the president of NVNJ Construction Group, a construction company he founded. He listed inflation, border security and crime, and water scarcity as his top issues. On the issue of water scarcity, Kovacs said, “It’s not as sexy as the election fraud or critical race theory or the Second Amendment, but if this area didn’t have water, it’d be a ghost town.” Kovacs has said his background running businesses sets him apart from his opponents: “How many other candidates are running multimillion-dollar businesses with collective bargaining agreements and paying into health care for more than 50 employees? None of them. One day I’m an accountant, the next a lawyer, then an engineer… the other candidates have no concept of this stuff. People are going to see this once we start talking about the issues.” In a campaign ad, Kovacs described Becker as a RINO (Republican In Name Only).

Malgeri is a U.S. Amy veteran, attorney, and founder and CEO of Mojave Rail Fabrication, a company that makes automobile roof racks. Malgeri has campaigned on stopping the teaching of critical race theory in schools, ending corruption in Washington D.C., and making America economically independent of China. Malgeri said, “I think my big picture appreciation of things like China, insight as patent attorney and decorated Army officer living in Europe for five years and the fact that I invented something and built a business around it have equipped me with the necessary perspective. I’ve also lived and worked in Washington, D.C., before. I know what it’s like there.”

Clark Bossert and Albert Maxwell Goldberg are also running in the race.
