特朗普远程集会介入内华达众议员选战

据 Reno Gazette Journal 10月21日报道,美国总统特朗普当日在内华达州 Washoe County 的 Reno 一场国会众议员选战中通过电话集会发声,称民主党候选人 Teresa Benitez-Thompson 疯狂,并称其为激进民主党共产主义者。这场选战的对阵双方是共和党人 David Flippo 与民主党人 Teresa Benitez-Thompson,胜者将接替宣布退休的现任众议员 Mark Amodei。特朗普曾在今年6月共和党初选中背书 David Flippo;报道指,这一背书被认为帮助这位北内华达政坛新人击败了长期任职的牧场主兼州议员 James Settelmeyer。选举预测显示,凭借共和党在活跃注册选民中的优势,David Flippo 被看好获胜,但预测同时显示,若民主党出现大胜局面,Teresa Benitez-Thompson 仍有机会。她曾于2010至2022年担任内华达州众议员,是一名持证社工,最近的职务是内华达州总检察长 Aaron Ford 办公室的幕僚长。
Trump Joins Nevada House Race by Tele-Rally
President Donald Trump spoke by tele-rally on October 21 in a U.S. House race in Reno, Washoe County, Nevada, calling Democratic candidate Teresa Benitez-Thompson crazy and a radical Democrat communist, the Reno Gazette Journal reported. The race pits Republican David Flippo against Democrat Teresa Benitez-Thompson for the seat of Rep. Mark Amodei, who is retiring. Trump endorsed Flippo in the Republican primary in June, a move credited with helping the Northern Nevada newcomer defeat longtime rancher and legislator James Settelmeyer. Election forecasts show Flippo favored to win because of the Republican advantage among active registered voters, while also showing Benitez-Thompson within striking distance if Democrats achieve a large wave. From 2010 to 2022, Benitez-Thompson served in the Nevada Assembly representing parts of Reno and the North Valleys. She is a licensed social worker and was most recently chief of staff for Nevada Attorney General Aaron Ford.
