I'd have to go with Option 2. Nevada is by no means out of reach for Republicans. It still has sizable populations of Mormons and libertarians, and although the Latinos have made it swing toward Democrats, Republicans certainly can be competitive there as well by changing their tactics and rhetoric on illegal immigration and playing up their social conservatism in Latino outreach (though that's probably not a smart strategy to win moderates, so maybe more in Spanish campaign ads, etc.) It's also important to remember that as future generations of Latinos assimilate more, they will probably become more supportive of the GOP than they are now. Whether it'll be enough without stronger outreach is still anybody's guess, though.
