Joe Lombardo American law enforcement officer

Steve Sisolak American businessman and politician Gov. Steve Sisolak, D-Nev., lost an endorsement from a top teachers union in his race for re-election for not sufficiently addressing educational issues, and the announcement comes after several recent polls show him falling behind Republican challenger Joe Lombardo in the Nevada governor's race.

The Clark County Education Association (CCEA) announced that after interviewing both gubernatorial candidates, they will not be making any endorsements for this year's election, despite endorsing Sisolak in the 2018 gubernatorial race.

The union said that their reasoning behind withholding an endorsement was due to Sisolak's "record" and lack of plans for the issues currently facing the education system.

"In the 2018 gubernatorial election, CCEA supported Steve Sisolak. We helped him win the primary and go on to win the general election. Sisolak has a record, and it was important to know what he was going to change moving forward," CCEA said in a statement revealing their decision. "We expected to hear a plan to address these issues over the next four years; and we did not."

"CCEA cannot support Steve Sisolak for reelection and will not be making an endorsement in the 2022 Governor’s race," the union stated.

Governorships are extremely important. It’s where election integrity laws and education reforms happen.

Whoa... Jeffery Dahmer could get the teacher’s endorsement if he ran as a Democrat.

Virginia is a good example. Stark difference between the two candidates and thank the Lord, the good guy won.

Incredibly, there's some truth to that.
