Description
Nevadas State Treasurer Race: A Three-Way Democratic Primary
In the 2026 Nevada State Treasurer race, three Democratic candidates vie for the position as current holder Zach Conine reaches his term limit. The role oversees billions in state funds, managing investments, college savings plans, and unclaimed property records. The primary takes place on June 9th, with early voting from May 23rd to June 5th and mail-in ballots mailed out from May 11th to 18th.
All three candidates emphasize fiduciary duty over politics for investments, focusing on financial returns, risk, and long-term stability. In a recession, they prioritize liquidity, protecting reserves, and supporting families through jobs or essential services.
Fundraising data shows Joe Dalia with $207,000 cash on hand after raising $56,000, Tya Mathis-Coleman with $106,000 after raising $124,000, and Jay Maharjan with $13,000. Republicans Jeff Carter and Drew Johnson await the general election.
Dalia highlights legislative wins and finance background to address scholarships and infrastructure issues. Maharjan brings economic research and classroom insight from challenging neighborhoods. Mathis-Coleman leverages her six years of experience within the office for immediate readiness.
This race will determine how Nevada protects its financial future, so stay tuned for primary results in the summer.
