WASHINGTON ― Republican congressional candidate John Lee said in a new audio obtained by HuffPost that he’s “not worried about Black people” and mocked his Democratic opponent in Nevada , Rep. Steven Horsford, for being chair of the Congressional Black Caucus .
“So they’re the most racist people in the world,” the GOP congressional hopeful said. “They have one objective, and that is for self-domination in Congress.” HuffPost attempted to contact Lee for comment. Weirdly, Lee, the former mayor of North Las Vegas and a former state legislator, does not provide any contact information on his campaign site, and a Google search yielded no information about a campaign manager or any other point of contact. HuffPost left messages for Lee via social media and with the treasurer listed on his Federal Election Commission form when he filed to run in this race.
The stakes are high this year, and our 2024 coverage could use continued support. Would you consider becoming a regular HuffPost contributor?
