In a state that has elected Republican governors for the past 20 years, Nevada is listed as a toss-up by both FiveThirtyEight and RealClearPolitics.

With Republican Gov. Brian Sandoval term-limited, Republican Attorney General Adam Laxalt and Democrat Clark County Commissioner Steve Sisolak are neck-and-neck in the 2018 gubernatorial race.

A Reuters/Ipsos/UVA Center for Politics poll of 2,000 adults released Wednesday shows Sisolak with a 1-percentage point lead over Laxalt. But that same poll shows that among 1,137 likely voters, Laxalt holds a 5 percentage-point advantage.
