内华达州：总检察长就油价公开挑战州长：要求联名致信联邦求助
内华达州总检察长 Aaron Ford 10月23日在 Las Vegas 一处加油站公开表示，油价上涨正加重内华达家庭的负担，并公开要求州长 Joe Lombardo 与他联名致信联邦政府，请求就高油价提供协助。Ford 同时是州长选举的参选人，现任州长 Lombardo 正在竞选连任，两人的这次交锋发生在11月3日选举前不到两周。
Lombardo 方面回应称，州政府已设立燃料韧性委员会，并提出销售税假期等方案，同时正与跨党派人士合作，降低内华达州对加州燃料政策的依赖。内华达州的汽油供应与加州炼厂和管道联系紧密，油价波动长期是该州选民最关心的生活成本议题之一。
内华达州提前投票已于10月17日开始。州长选举之外，该州今年还将改选副州长、州务卿、总检察长及多个国会席位，油价与生活成本预计仍是选战最后阶段的核心议题。
Nevada: Attorney General Challenges Governor on Fuel Prices: Calls for Joint Letter Seeking Federal Help
In Nevada, Attorney General Aaron Ford appeared at a Las Vegas Valley gas station on October 23 and publicly called on Governor Joe Lombardo to join him in signing a letter requesting federal assistance on high fuel prices, saying rising costs are straining Nevada families. Ford is challenging Lombardo in the governor's race, with the election set for November 3.
Lombardo has countered by pointing to his Fuel Resiliency Committee and a proposed sales tax holiday, and says he is working with a bipartisan group to reduce Nevada's reliance on fuel policies originating in California. Nevada's gasoline supply is closely tied to California refineries and pipelines, and pump prices are a persistent cost-of-living issue for voters in the state.
Early voting in Nevada began on October 17. In addition to the governorship, voters will decide races for lieutenant governor, secretary of state, attorney general and several congressional seats, with fuel prices and affordability expected to remain central issues in the final stretch of the campaign.
