"We are really struggling in Las Vegas, and it's time to have some bold leadership that is ready to go and fight for change," Vilela said when asked about the state of the race. "People are responding positively. They're ready for leadership that isn't complacence."
"They want someone who understands the struggle of the working class and who is willing to take that work experience to Washington, D.C., to fight for all of us," she added.
