Jimmy Kimmel aims to sway Nevada voters towards the blue side leveraging his celebrity status and late-night television popularity.
Early voting in Nevada began on Oct. 8, with most votes expected to be cast on Nov. 5.
Kimmel recently visited Southern Nevada to support Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign with the Culinary Workers Union Local 226.
The Culinary Union represents over 60,000 hospitality workers in Las Vegas and Reno, including housekeepers, waitstaff, bartenders, cooks, porters, and bellmen.
Raised in Las Vegas, Kimmel emphasized his family’s background in the Culinary Union and encouraged members and allies to stay focused during the final stages of the 2024 campaign.

Joined by Nevada’s Democratic U.S. Sen. Jacky Rosen, Kimmel thanked union members for their support towards the Democratic presidential nominee.
During his visit, Kimmel shared a personal story to connect with the union members and emphasize the importance of their votes.
Kimmel reiterated the significance of voting for candidates who truly have the best interests of the workers at heart.
