KMZQ 670AM, Kevin Wall Radio 6/02/2026 – Hour 3 Part 1

Cody K. Whipple, a fourth-generation Nevadan rancher and small business owner, makes a bold case for replacing long-serving Democratic Congressman Stephen Hordsford in Nevada's 4th Congressional District, framing the race as a fight for Nevada's soul. He argues that Hordsford has become disconnected from the district’s diverse communities—from rural ranching towns to urban Las Vegas—while prioritizing D.C. politics over local needs. Whipple positions himself as the only candidate with deep roots across the district’s 7.5-hour expanse, citing his family’s legacy, military service, and work with law enforcement and unions. His platform centers on energy independence, infrastructure reform, and restoring local control, particularly through domestic fuel production to combat inflation. He emphasizes that the real issues for voters are kitchen-table concerns: rising gas prices, affordability, and safety on rural roads. With a $750,000 war chest and strong endorsements from conservative leaders and the NRA’s top AQ rating, Whipple calls on independents and undecided voters to reject the 'swamp' and choose a candidate who understands Nevada’s regional identity. He warns that the current system allows politicians to win with just three zip codes, and insists that true representation requires a candidate who lives, works, and plays across the entire district.
