President Donald Trump on Monday endorsed incumbent Gov. Joe Lombardo in the Nevada gubernatorial race. 

In a post on Truth Social, Trump cited Lombardo's experience in law enforcement and his military service. 

"Joe strongly supports our incredible Law Enforcement, Military, and Veterans, and knows the Wisdom and Courage it takes to Promote LAW AND ORDER," Trump said. 

Lombardo faces six other candidates vying for the Republican nomination in Tuesday's primary race.
