Democrat Nicole Cannizzaro Wins Nevada Attorney General Race
The result of Nevada's attorney general election was confirmed on November 8: Democrat Nicole Cannizzaro defeated Republican Adriana Guzman Fralick to become Nevada's next attorney general.
The November 3 contest was one of 30 attorney general elections across the United States in 2026. Incumbent Attorney General Aaron Ford, barred by term limits from running again, ran for governor instead, and Cannizzaro will succeed him. Cannizzaro has served in the Nevada Senate since 2016, representing District 6. A central issue in the race was how frequently the attorney general should sue the federal government. The election-analysis outlet Sabato's Crystal Ball shifted its rating of the race from "toss-up" to "leans Democratic" in August 2026.
With the governor, secretary of state and attorney general races all decided, one party has swept Nevada's three top offices — something neither party had done in the state before this election.
