Jimmy Kimmel, a late-night chat show host who is also from the city, revved up union workers on Saturday morning.

He arrived at the Culinary Workers’ headquarters with Ms Rosen, whose own first job was as a waitress on the Las Vegas strip.

“We are going to repeal and replace Dean Heller. He may have Donald Trump as a best friend but I have all of you,” said Ms Rosen to raucous cheers, as spoke about both health care — lampooning Republicans’ efforts to repeal and replace Obamacare — and the fact that she wants this election to be a referendum on the president.

Mr Kimmel has become a darling of the left since he shared the story of his baby son, who needed expensive surgery after being born with congenital heart defects, to support calls for universal health care.

“I just wanted to come and say thank you to you guys because I know you are out there knocking on doors, encouraging your friends and family to vote the right way — and we all know the right way is Jacky Rosen,” he said, before posing for selfies with campaigners.
