House Speaker Mike Johnson, R‑Louisiana, is slated to appear at a Get Out the Vote rally in Las Vegas on Tuesday, sharing the stage with Republican congressional hopefuls Marty O’Donnell and state Sen. Carrie Buck. An Eventbrite listing posted Friday shows the rally will run from 5:30 p.m. to 7 p.m., with the venue to be announced a day in advance.
O’Donnell, a composer best known for video‑game scores such as the Halo franchise, is challenging Democratic incumbent Rep. Susie Lee in Nevada’s 3rd Congressional District. His campaign website says he is focused on building a resilient economy, securing the border, restoring a vision of the United States as a land of opportunity, and tackling the national debt.
Buck, a sitting Nevada state senator, is running against Rep. Dina Titus in the 1st District. Her campaign pledges to “protect parents’ rights, secure the border, fully fund our police, ensure tips are never taxed, and work with the President to hold Washington accountable for every taxpayer dollar,”.
O’Donnell’s online forum has drawn criticism for posts containing racial slurs, minimizations of Nazi Germany and defenses of white‑nationalist conspiracy theories. Early voting in Nevada begins Saturday, and officials are urging residents to cast ballots early amid concerns over the federal plan to slash Colorado River water allocations for Nevada, California and Arizona.
