Nevada's 2nd congressional district includes the northern third of the state. It includes most of Douglas and Lyon counties, all of Churchill, Elko, Eureka, Humboldt, Pershing and Washoe counties, as well as the state capital, Carson City. The largest city in the district is Reno, the state's second largest city. Although the district appears rural, its politics are dominated by Reno and Carson City, which combined cast over 85 percent of the district's vote. The incumbent was Republican Mark Amodei, who had represented the 2nd district since September 2011 following a special election upon the appointment of Dean Heller to the Senate. Amodei was mentioned as a potential candidate for the U.S. Senate, but denied having any interest.[7][8] In May 2015 Amodei reiterated his commitment to running for re-election.[9]
