Greg Kidd on Running for Congress in Northern Nevada

Many Northern Nevadans have gotten used to seeing sitting Congressman Mark Amodei defeat whichever Democrat runs against him in Congressional District 2. Because this is a Republican-leaning district, the Democratic Party has never invested significant resources in those races.

However, this year Amodei won't face a Democratic challenger at all.

Instead, his primary competition will be Greg Kidd, a Non-Partisan candidate with a background in business, finance, and technology. Kidd is self-funding his campaign with a slogan of "Free, Fair, and Wild." He describes this slogan as a nod to the Freedom message of Republicans, the Fairness message of Democrats, and the Wild West character of Nevada. 

This week, Greg sat down with Renoites host Conor McQuivey to discuss his campaign and related issues, including:

• why he decided to run for Congress
• his goals for clearer regulation of things like crypto currency and payment systems
• why Nevada has a competitive advantage because of our experience with casinos
• what lithium mining could mean for our future in the state
• working from the middle with both Democrats and Republicans
• how the dynamics of a R vs NP race are different than R vs D
• and much more!
