Three candidates are running in Nevada's 3rd District, where the last two elections were decided by fewer than four points

Incumbent Susie Lee (D), Marty O'Donnell (R), and Jon Kamerath (Independent American Party) are running in the general election for Nevada's 3rd Congressional District on November 3, 2026.

The Nevada Independent's Gabby Birenbaum said, "The district, which last elected a Republican in 2014, has been something of a white whale for House Republicans. Because it shares the often pricey media market with Districts 1 and 4 in Las Vegas, it can be difficult for Republicans to target spending in the district." Lee won re-election 52.0%–48.0% in 2022 and 51.4%–48.6% in 2024. That year, Donald Trump (R) defeated Kamala Harris (D) 49.5%–48.8% in the 3rd District. As of July 2026, major election forecasters rated the general election Lean Democratic.

Lee was first elected to the House in 2018. She earlier worked as a nonprofit executive. Lee's campaign website says, "From combating the drought, to bringing supply chains back to America to lower costs, to ensuring our veterans get the benefits they deserve, Susie Lee has effectively worked with both parties and delivered for Nevadans. In fact, she was recognized as one of the top 10 most bipartisan Members of Congress."
