LAS VEGAS, Nev. (KOLO) – RNC national committeewoman Sigal Chattah has been nominated to be the U.S. Attorney for Nevada by President Trump.
Chattah ran against current Attorney General Aaron Ford to be the state’s AG back in 2022.
Chattah would lose to Ford but would earn 44% of the vote in the Silver State.
Calling her a fierce defender of personal liberties, GOP Chairman Michael J McDonald said: “We are thrilled that President Trump and Attorney General Bondi have the warrior they need in Nevada. Sigal will rigorously advocate for the President’s priorities and investigate corruption throughout the Silver State. Under Sigal’s leadership, it will be a bad day to be a bad guy – justice will be served.”
Democrats in the state of Nevada, however, took a less congratulatory tone:
“Sigal Chattah is grossly unfit to serve as Nevada’s US Attorney. While running for Attorney General, Chattah said she would use public office to go after her political opponents and after losing the election she sued to make voting harder. This is the same person who said that Nevada’s first Black Attorney General should ‘hang from a f-ing crane’. That, her significant ties to January 6th rioters, and much more disqualify her from being anywhere near the United States Justice Department.”
