NV-PPP (D): Heller on track to get Blanched apparently

[Maxwell]

oh wow i did not expect this. beautiful!

Also, there are quite a few possibilities here - frontrunners in mind are Rich Guy Steve Cloobeck (gross) or Beautiful Ruben Kihuen (the ideal choice), if we dig a bit deeper Dina Titus, Aaron Ford, or Ross Miller would do just fine.

yes, Chic Hecht was considered pretty much DOA most of the time he was running, the fact he lost by 4 was considered relatively impressive as Richard Bryan had very considerable popularity.

So yes, tough to dislodge an incumbent in Nevada. But Heller has surprised me lately with some bone-headed moves - voting for Mnuchin being the biggest example. That would've been an easy show of independence in a state that was dramatically affected by the housing crisis. Instead he made a show and voted for him anyway.

Heller must have seen this poll, if his rhetoric on the AHCA is anything to go by

[Maxwell]

I have Nevada as a tossup for two reasons: the Ds dont have any candidates yet and the strength of incumbency. Once a decent D like Titus enters the race, it'll become Tilt/Lean D in my eyes

The incumbency is one reason why I have this as likely D.

Maybe one of the new congresspeople could make the immediate jump a-la Tom Cotton?

FIFY

Beautiful Flawless Ruben Kihuen is the candidate then!

Those saying "no Republican has a chance in 2018," "

nobody is saying that
