Nevada Gov. Brian Sandoval says he’s not totally sure whether he’ll vote for Donald Trump.

The moderate Republican governor issued a statement Tuesday saying he has major concerns with the Republican nominee’s “escalating tone and rhetoric.”

His comments come after he said in May that he planned to vote for Trump because the Democratic nominee was “simply not an option.”

Sandoval told the Las Vegas Review-Journal he thought Trump’s comments about a federal judge handling a case involving Trump University were unacceptable. Trump has complained that U.S.-born federal Judge Gonzalo Curiel is biased against him and cited his Mexican heritage.

Sandoval is Nevada’s first Hispanic governor and a former federal judge.

Trump says his comments on Curiel were misconstrued.
