No matter what, North Las Vegas will elect its first Black mayor come November.

Veteran elected officials Councilwoman Pamela Goynes-Brown and state Sen. Pat Spearman, D-North Las Vegas, are running to replace Mayor John Lee, who chose not to run for re-election so he could mount a bid for governor on the Republican ticket. He came in fourth in the primary.
