Governor to greet president in Reno

CARSON CITY — Gov. Brian Sandoval, who once said he could not support Donald Trump for president, will greet the president when he arrives in Reno on Wednesday to address the convention of the American Legion.

Sandoval said he has been invited to meet the president.

He said he intends to talk with Trump about money to reimburse the state for construction of a veterans home in Sparks and federal support for Creech Air Force Base, Nellis Air Force Base and Fallon Naval Air Station. He also wants to discuss veterans hospitals and cemeteries.

Sandoval at one point said he could not support Trump for president during the primary elections, but he kept confidential whom he voted for.
