Las Vegas may be America\u2019s playground but for those who live and work in Sin City, high costs make life difficult, and that single issue will be decisive when they vote for a new US president in November.<\/p>\n

\n

But who will make things better for people who serve the drinks, wait the tables and deal the cards? Odds are dead even in Nevada<\/a>, a key battleground where Republican Donald Trump and Democrat Kamala Harris are running neck-and-neck.<\/p>\n

For Sally Uribe, a 40-year-old waitress who once made hundreds of dollars a night working in a casino, there is no doubt.<\/p>\n

\u201cWhen Trump was president, I only worked 40 hours a week, if that,\u201d Uribe said after an early morning shift serving drinks to gamblers.<\/p>\n

Now, the single mom-of-three says she has three different jobs just to make ends meet. She blames the Democrats, and believes Trump when he promises falling prices and rising wages.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have to pay more in interest. \u00a0I have to pay more for gas. I also have to pay more for groceries. Everything just went skyrocket(ing),\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

Hotel worker Spencer Lindsay is meanwhile campaigning for Harris, and says voters express similar concerns.<\/p>\n

A young would-be Trump voter complains straight away about the cost of living \u2014 a common refrain, Lindsay says, adding that most voters ask about the prices of \u201cmedication, food and gas.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tips and taxes<\/h2>\n

Trump and Harris are spinning the wheel of fortune in Nevada in the final frenetic weeks ahead of the November 5 election, hoping to secure the state\u2019s six Electoral College votes.<\/p>\n

Fivethirtyeight.com has the two dead even in its average of recent polls. The state backed Democrat Joe Biden in 2020.<\/p>\n

Four out of 10 people in the state say the economy is the most pressing issue, according to a poll by Emerson College.<\/p>\n

Two-thirds of Nevada\u2019s population of 3.1 million live in Clark County, which includes Las Vegas, where the leisure and hospitality sector accounts for a quarter of all jobs.<\/p>\n

So it is no surprise that a Trump pledge to make tips tax-free, unveiled during a visit to Vegas in June and quickly matched by Harris, is of great interest.<\/p>\n

Uribe said it\u2019s the policy she likes most on the Republican\u2019s platform.<\/p>\n

As for Lindsay, a member of the 60,000-strong Culinary Union, he admits: \u201cWe do live on our tips.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cSo for any candidate or political party to really win over Nevada, yes, take taxes off tips,\u201d he says.<\/p>\n

Unemployment<\/h2>\n

Las Vegas came to a complete standstill during the Covid-19 pandemic, leaving thousands out of work.<\/p>\n

The city has long since reopened, with its daily menu of huge conventions, mega-concerts, larger-than-life parties and razzmatazz-filled sports events.<\/p>\n

But the hangover from the shutdown is proving tough to shift.<\/p>\n

And the job market is still shaky: at 5.6 percent, unemployment in Nevada is the worst in the country, way above the national rate of 4.1 percent.<\/p>\n

\u201cI\u2019ve applied in many places, but nothing,\u201d says Gallego Perez, who became unemployed four years ago.<\/p>\n

Perez waits in the parking lot of a hardware store to pick up odd jobs \u2014 a life that generates around $1,000 a month, barely half the state\u2019s median rent.<\/p>\n

He says there is no point in making an election decision based on the economy.<\/p>\n

\u201cHow would life change for us here?\u201d he asks.<\/p>\n

\u2018It all snowballs\u2019<\/h2>\n

Sam Mitchell, an electrician who lost his job four years ago, is acutely aware of how politics matters.<\/p>\n

Mitchell, who panhandles at traffic lights, says he had worked his whole life when suddenly the ground shifted.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll it takes is one day, two days of being late, which is really easy to do on the bus\u201d and you lose your job, he says. \u201cThen it all snowballs.\u201d<\/p>\n

Mitchell identified as a Republican in the past and saw Trump as a \u201cgood businessman.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cI was pretty conservative,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

\u201cI believed in the whole idea of \u2018the government should leave us alone and let us do our own thing\u2019.\u00a0And I tell you what \u2014 that bit me in the ass, because now I really need them.\u201d<\/p>\n

For many of the Nevada voters AFP spoke to, the economy is the most pressing issue.<\/p>\n

But for Bianca Garziola, the result is less important than the money she can make from the election itself.<\/p>\n

\u201cAt the end of the day, everything\u2019s going to turn out the same,\u201d she said as she showed off political t-shirts at a store she manages.<\/p>\n

\u201cBut\u00a0in the shirt business, Trump is winning the election,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n

\u201cEverything with Trump on it sells.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/div>\n\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
