Nevada Governor Joe Lombardo is endorsing Donald Trump in this year's presidential race. 

Trump's campaign, Team Trump, posted the announcement on X on Thursday. 

Trump is participating in Nevada's 'First in the West Caucus' on February 8, while the Secretary of State's Office will hold a presidential primary for Republican voters two days earlier. 

A few hours later, the campaign then posted that Lt. Governor Stavros Anthony has also endorsed Trump. 

The Nevada GOP has said it will only honor the results of their party-run caucus to choose the Republican presidential nominee, despite a 2021 state law that requires the Nevada secretary of state’s office to hold a presidential primary for the party.

Trump won the 2016 caucus; the 2020 caucus was canceled.
