The Associated Press projects that Democrat Rep. Steven Horsford will win his race for re-election in Nevada’s 4th Congressional District, fending off Republican challenger Samuel Peters.
Horsford faced backlash over the past few years after it was found that the married congressman was involved in a 10-year affair with a past intern of former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid.
The congressman’s wife also expressed her discomfort with her husband seeking re-election and denounced his race for re-election.
