BREAKING; NV-GOV: Laxalt accused of rape in 1996

[America Needs a 13-6 Progressive SCOTUS]

I still think Rosen will slightly outrun Sisolak.

[IceSpear]

Several of Laxalt's relatives blast his candidacy and host a fundraiser for Sisolak.

But...his Family Name™

[Virginiá]

When are we going to get Nevada polls for gods sakes

*insert various forms of whining here*

[Xing]

Ruh-oh, looks like that family name isn't so magical now.

IfWhen Wacky Jacky wins, she'll have SisolakNevada's Democratic lean and the blue wave to thank.

FTFY

[MT Treasurer]

Laxalt needs to stop being selfish and campaign for Republicans that are actually in big trouble, like Scott Walker or Kim Reynolds.

[Progressive Pessimist]

Republican candidates' families turning on them has been an oddly common occurrence this election cycle.

[progressive85]

This guy's to the right of Attila the Hun.  Why in a blue wave would a Hillary state vote for a Pat Robertson type to succeed a moderate Republican governor?

Back to the hofoid style trolling act I see.

Americans don't vote based on ideology, especially not "swing voters." He'd be in the same position as he is now (that is, an underdog) even if he was an Olympia Snowe clone.

What were Attila's policies that made you choose him for this comparison?

I was wondering that too.

You must be logged in to read this quote.

lol. Just like Wisconsin was the top Senate race of 2018, right?

[Progressive Pessimist]

Wow Laxalt might be actually be more of a mess than DeSantis or Rauner.

[Predictor]

oh https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/elections/gop-gov-candidate-laxalt-arrested-assaulting-police-officer-teen-n915561

This will help him earn votes from cop-haters anyway. Unless it's only bad if a GOP does it.

[Xing]

oh https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/elections/gop-gov-candidate-laxalt-arrested-assaulting-police-officer-teen-n915561

But he was just a (white) boy, you see, and boys will be boys

[Oryxslayer]

Surprise update, Hof died last night. Nevada can't remove him from the ballot. Now his safe R seat enters that uncertain zone of will voters cast a ballot for a dead man (especially a controversial one) if it means getting another GOP candidate in a 2019 special.

LAS VEGAS (AP) — Dennis Hof, a legal pimp who gained notoriety for an HBO series about his business and who has fashioned himself as a Donald Trump-style Republican candidate for the state Legislature, has died, Nevada authorities said Tuesday.

An employee at Hof’s Love Ranch brothel about an hour outside of Las Vegas summoned authorities a little before 11 a.m. Tuesday after Hof was found unresponsive and not breathing, said Nye County Sheriff Lt. David Boruchowitz.

He declined to say where on the property Hof was found, and said people at the business were being questioned.

“Preliminarily, there is no indication of foul play,” Boruchowitz said.

Hof, who turned 72 on Sunday, was the Republican candidate this year in a heavily GOP state legislative district. Ballots have already been printed in the race and it wasn’t immediately clear how elections officials would handle Hof’s death.[...]

[America Needs a 13-6 Progressive SCOTUS]

He will probably win from his grave.
