Senate

  • Harry Reid was courting Asian-American voters this past weekend. Targeting demographic groups and related wedge issues have been key for the two campaigns as they try to win points in the game of inches.
  • One justification of the Republicans-for-Reid folks is that Reid is way better than Schumer, who one crossover guy said is a “vicious liberal.”
  • UFC fighters endorsing Senate candidates is a new thing this year.
  • In light of the tight numbers, people are starting to talk about a possible recount. If that happens, it would not be the first recount rodeo for either Sharron Angle or Harry Reid.
  • In 1974, a recount determined Reid lost the U.S. Senate race to Republican Paul Laxalt by 624 votes. Two dozen years later later, Reid won a recount in his Senate race against John Ensign by 428 votes.
  • In 2006, Angle lost in the Republican primary for NV-2 by 421 votes to Dean Heller.

House

  • Republican Joe Heck is so far doing more to court Hispanic voters than his opponent.
  • Looks like Heck was right when he questioned the job-creating effectiveness of the stimulus in Nevada.
  • Students at UNLV called Titus on the carpet for cheating (using notes) in the recent debate.
  • The wind energy lobby is a player now, too.
  • A Nevada freelancer did a nice profile on Nevada’s only safe Democrat, Rep. Shelley Berkley.

Governor

  • The Reno Gazette-Journal has endorsed the presumed winner, Brian Sandoval.
  • An anecdotal blurb: Rory Reid was last on my lengthy Google News & Blog Alerts lists this morning. Poor Rory.
  • At least one somebody loves Rory, for whatever post-election comfort that will bring.
