Gallego is heading to Las Vegas on Monday to campaign with Democrat Aaron Ford, one of the party’s top targets to flip a governor’s seat. Nevada’s a state where Latinos make up nearly 1 in 5 voters, with working-class roots and the major influence of groups like the Culinary Union — not to mention a key presidential swing state and an early one on the Democratic nominating calendar.

Gallego’s planning a canvass launch with the Culinary Union, a hit on Spanish radio and a roundtable with Latino veterans.
