Incumbent Dina Titus defeated Amy Vilela in the Democratic primary election for Nevada's 1st Congressional District on June 14, 2022.

Gary Martin of the Las Vegas Review-Journal wrote before the primary that “On social issues, there is little difference between the two candidates, who champion civil, voting and LGBTQ+ rights, lower prescription drug costs, environmental causes and expanded health care access and coverage.[1]

Titus was first elected to the U.S. House of Representatives in 2008 from Nevada's 3rd Congressional District and lost her re-election bid in 2010 to Joseph Heck (R), 48.1% to 47.5%. She won election to the 1st District in 2012 and won re-election four times. Prior to serving in the House, Titus was a member of the Nevada State Senate and was the Democratic caucus leader for 15 years. She highlighted her seniority and work on economic issues, saying, "I’ve used my voice to provide resources for those who need it most. Although we’re recovering rapidly, we still have a long way to go. People live paycheck to paycheck, and I’ll like to make sure that our prosperity is permanent."[1] Titus also contrasted her approach to Vilela: “I am a progressive, but I don't believe in defunding the police. I'm for Medicare for all, but you've got to do it in a step-by-step process.”[2] The Las Vegas Sun, EMILY's List, and the National Education Association endorsed Titus.[3][4][5]

Vilela served as Nevada co-chair of Sen. Bernie Sanders' 2020 presidential campaign, executive vice president of finance at Foresee Consulting, and at the time of the election, was the owner of a political consulting firm. She described herself as a progressive Democrat who supported Medicare for All and the Green New Deal.[6] Vilela said she would provide new enthusiasm for representing the district, saying, “Time and time again, [Titus] has never faced a serious threat to her re-election from either party. With that kind of security, she has the opportunity to be a leading voice for bold, real progress. But she's declined to do so … She's embraced that security to make excuses to take her foot off the gas when it comes to organizing our community and mobilizing voters to show up to the polls."[2] Sen. Sanders (I-Vt.), Brand New Congress, and U.S. Rep. Cori Bush (D-Mo.) endorsed Vilela. [7][8][9]

Nevada's 1st District was made more competitive after redistricting. Jannelle Calderon wrote in The Nevada Independent that “Before redistricting, District 1 had more than 147,000 registered Democrats and fewer than 66,000 registered Republicans — a more than 2-to-1 advantage for Titus’ party. The most recent voter registration statistics, published in March, show District 1 has 153,790 Democrats and 108,616 Republicans, or an 11-point Democratic advantage.”[2] Before redistricting, FiveThirtyEight determined that the district had a partisan lean—or difference between how a state or district votes and how the country votes overall—of D+22. After redistricting, the site rated the district under the new boundaries at D+4.[10] As of June 6, 2022, the Cook Political Report rated the district's general election as a Toss-Up. Inside Elections and Larry Sabato's Crystal Ball rated the general election as Leans Democratic.

Key Messages

The following key messages were curated by Ballotpedia staff. For more on how we identify key messages, click here.


Titus said she advocated for improving laws concerning immigration, saying at a campaign event, "We make immigration a priority because we have the most ethnically diverse district in the state and one of the most in the country. And we have many mixed-status families in this district … We have introduced and passed a number of bills out of the House that deal with immigration and a pathway to citizenship.”


Titus said she supported legal access to abortion, telling the Nevada Independent, "I will continue to fight at the federal level to ensure that every woman has the right to body autonomy and choice over our own health care decisions. We need to protect every American woman’s right to choose and give them access to abortion regardless of where they live."


Titus highlighted legislation passed during the 117th Congress. She told The New York Times, "[The legislation is] very significant because it shows that the Democrats care about solving problems, it shows that we can get things done and I think it starts to turn around some of the talk about Biden."

Political Office: None

Biography:  Vilela received a bachelor's degree in accounting and business management from Park University. Her professional experience includes working as the chief financial officer of the Tammy Lynn Center for Developmental Disabilities in Raleigh, North Carolina, executive vice president of finance at Foresee Consulting, and the owner of a political consulting firm. She served as Nevada co-chair of Sen. Bernie Sanders's 2020 presidential campaign.



Key Messages

The following key messages were curated by Ballotpedia staff. For more on how we identify key messages, click here.


Vilela compared herself with Titus, saying, "This race has never been about who's more progressive. It's about what type of leadership this district needs and deserves. And when it comes to having power in Congress … I would not be just coming in by myself, but joining other progressives who are also fighting for these policies that are so important to the working class."


Vilela summarized her positions on a range of issues, saying, "“It’s about making sure we have a livable wage, that we have Medicare for all, that we are fighting against corporate influence in our politics, that we're getting money out of politics, that we're fighting for a Green New Deal."


Vilela supports abortion rights, saying, "Regardless of where you stand on abortion, you should be very scared because the foundation of why we have the right to make a choice for our body and our autonomy is based on the right to privacy … We need to do whatever measures necessary, codified into law or pack the courts. We need to do something now to make sure that we are not allowing this to go through because again, it doesn't stop there."

General election race ratings

See also: Race rating definitions and methods

Ballotpedia provides race ratings from four outlets: The Cook Political Report, Inside Elections, Sabato's Crystal Ball, and DDHQ/The Hill. Each race rating indicates if one party is perceived to have an advantage in the race and, if so, the degree of advantage:

  • Safe and Solid ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge and the race is not competitive.
  • Likely ratings indicate that one party has a clear edge, but an upset is possible.
  • Lean ratings indicate that one party has a small edge, but the race is competitive.[12]
  • Toss-up ratings indicate that neither party has an advantage.

Race ratings are informed by a number of factors, including polling, candidate quality, and election result history in the race's district or state.[13][14][15]

Post-filing deadline analysis

The following analysis covers all U.S. House districts up for election in Nevada in 2022. Information below was calculated on April 6, 2022, and may differ from information shown in the table above due to candidate replacements and withdrawals after that time.

In 2022, 38 candidates filed to run in Nevada’s four U.S. House districts, including 21 Republicans, 12 Democrats, and five independent or third party candidates. That’s 9.5 candidates per district, less than the 10.0 candidates per district in 2020 and 10.5 candidates per district in 2018.

This was the first candidate filing deadline under new district lines following Nevada's decennial redistricting process. Nevada was apportioned four congressional districts, the same number it had after the 2010 census. Since Democrats and Republicans filed to run in every district, none were guaranteed to one party or the other at the time of the filing deadline.

All four incumbents filed for re-election and, of that total, three drew primary challengers leaving Rep. Steven Horsford (D) as the only incumbent uncontested in a primary. In Nevada, uncontested primaries are canceled, meaning Horsford was guaranteed to advance to the general election.

With all four incumbents seeking re-election, this left no open districts. The last time Nevada had an open U.S. House district was in 2018 with two.

The 2nd district drew the most candidate filings with 14 candidates running. This included five Republicans, including incumbent Rep. Mark Amodei, seven Democrats, and two third party candidates.

Partisan Voter Index
