'That is not the outcome I want, but I believe in our election system, in democracy and honoring the will of Nevada voters,' the Democratic incumbent said.
Democratic Nevada Governor Steve Sisolak has conceded to Republican challenger Joe Lombardo as the state continues counting ballots.
Lombardo, currently the sheriff of Clark County, was up by a little more than 21,000 votes after the state released its latest batch of votes on Friday night. While the results narrowed the Republican's advantage somewhat, Sisolak conceded after concluding that he could not pull ahead with the remaining ballots,
"It appears we will fall a percentage point or so short of winning," Sisolak said in a statement."Obviously, that is not the outcome I want, but I believe in our election system, in democracy and honoring the will of Nevada voters. "Whether you voted for me or Sheriff Lombardo, it is important that we now come together to continue moving the state forward," he continued."That is why I reached out to the sheriff to wish him success."GOP Nevada gubernatorial candidate Joe Lombardo, left, is pictured during at an event in Las Vegas on Tuesday, while Democratic Governor Steve Sisolak is shown in the city on the same day.
