Six-term Congressman Lee Terry comes from a district that Barack Obama won by a 50%-49% margin. Democrats see him as vulnerable and are targeting him with State Senator Tom White. Lee Terry is a member of the Energy and Commerce Committee, and a strong advocate of corn-based ethanol and rural based solutions to energy prices.

*'''Dean Heller (R) of Nevada's 2nd congressional district:'''
Two term Congressman Dean Heller has announced he will not challenge Senator [[Harry Reid]] in 2010 and instead run for reelection in the House. In 2008 Heller increased his lead from 5 points to 10. Douglas County school board president Cindy Trigg announced she would run in 2010, but dropped out in July. Heller's cash-on-hand is currently $255,000.
*'''Dina Titus (D) of Nevada's 3rd congressional district:'''
Titus unseated three-term Republican Jon Porter in 2008. Her 47% victory will make it likely Republicans will put up a strong challenger in 2010. Representing portions of [[Las Vegas]], the district has been hit hard with foreclosures, job losses, and lack of tourism. Whether Titus is reelected will probably be decided over President Obama and the Democratic majority's handling of the [[economy]].
