Nevada has always been a state built on bold vision, hard work, and looking ahead to the next frontier. As we head into the 2026 election cycle, the race for State Treasurer offers voters a clear opportunity to choose a leader who embodies those values — and Assemblymember Joe Dalia stands out as that leader.
Joe announced his campaign for State Treasurer back in September 2025, opting not to seek re-election to the Nevada Assembly (District 29) so he could bring his energy and expertise to this critical statewide office. The Treasurer’s role isn’t just about balancing checkbooks — it’s about managing billions in state investments, overseeing college savings programs like Nevada’s 529 plans, protecting taxpayer dollars, and ensuring our state’s financial future is secure for generations to come. Joe has made it clear: he wants to invest in long-term, forward-looking generational change while delivering practical, responsible stewardship every step of the way.
What sets Joe apart is his proven track record. As an attorney, entrepreneur, and former CFO, he brings real-world business experience to a role that demands both fiscal discipline and innovative thinking. In the Assembly, he fought for policies that help Nevada reach its full potential — from supporting small businesses and economic growth to advocating for families and working Nevadans. His background includes co-founding a startup, interning for Senator Harry Reid early in his career, and earning an economics education that grounds his decisions in data and common sense.
But beyond the resume, what really stands out is the person. Those of us at NevadaAffairs have had the privilege of working alongside Joe in Carson City during his time in the Assembly. Collaborating on issues that matter to everyday Nevadans — from budget priorities to legislation that strengthens our communities — we saw firsthand his dedication, integrity, and ability to work across the aisle when it counts. Joe listens, he rolls up his sleeves, and he gets results. Carson sessions can be intense, but Joe brought a level of professionalism and good humor that made tough days more productive and enjoyable for everyone involved.
Nevada faces real challenges ahead: growing our economy in a post-boom-and-bust world, expanding access to education and opportunity, and protecting public funds in uncertain times. The Treasurer’s office needs someone who understands both the big picture and the details — someone rooted in Nevada’s pioneering spirit but not afraid of modern solutions. Joe Dalia checks every box.
As the Democratic primary heats up and the general election approaches on November 3, 2026, we’re proud to throw our support behind Joe Dalia for Nevada State Treasurer. He’s the kind of leader who will treat the state’s finances like they’re his own family’s future — because for him, that’s exactly what they are.
We encourage all Nevadans to learn more at joedalia.com, follow his campaign, and consider joining us in backing a candidate who has already proven he can deliver for our state.
Here’s to a brighter financial future for Nevada — with Joe Dalia leading the way.
