Workers come first before who or what? Retired seniors, veterans, children, caregivers, people with disabilities, the unhoused (and any others not listed)? I want a Governor for ALL Nevadans, not one who ranks us by class. Alexis Hill is looking better all the time.

The exclusion is what made me finally look for more information on Hill. I like what I see on the issues page, and am eager to listen and learn more. Although, I suggest a slogan leading with “fix our streets”, implying it’s the #1 priority, is not a state-wide winning strategy.

The exclusion of Hill from this poll made me more curious about her, so I visited her website and followed her on BlueSky. I’ve long just assumed I’d vote for Ford, but now… I’m not so sure. The pollsters might want to stop assuming he is the presumptive nominee.

We’re told that your vote to reopen the government enabled SNAP funding for another year, but then he says this. You said yourself that it’s naive to believe anything Republicans and Trump say, but then you forgot to listen to your own words.

Not to mention that Formula One is considered the “billionaire boys club”
as well as all the wealthy Strip hotel/casino owners who would lose out if the 3-day race was poorly attended. As always, follow the money.

Interesting. Tourism is WAY down in Las Vegas, which is also one of the impacted airports. The F1 race is in 2 weeks. Airlines would be counting on bringing lots of (rich) people in because locals can’t afford to attend. Could that help explain Rosen’s flip after weeks of talking tough?

She talked so tough for the last 40 days, I almost had hope. I should’ve known better.

It’s disappointing and incredibly irresponsible to make a snarky comment and post this headline late in the day when there were plenty of legal explanations calling this a smart and strategic decision posted MANY hours ago. Thank goodness your followers are largely more up to date.

If you’re trying to catch up on what went down with #SNAP late last night at #SCOTUS, here’s my attempt to read the breadcrumbs on the “administrative stay” issued by Justice Jackson—and why a justice so critical of the Court’s grants of emergency relief to Trump still granted temporary relief here:
190. SNAP WTF?
A very quick explainer on why Justice Jackson issued an "administrative stay" in the SNAP case late on Friday night, and on what's likely to happen next

How is this comment using Schumer as an “example?” He’s literally the one who made the offer on the Senate floor.

I’m in Nevada and have heard a LOT about him. You’re on BlueSky, he’s on BlueSky, so you can easily see/read about him even if you don’t subscribe to other social media. Apparently Amarillo is a very red city—he was there the other day and packed the house. Kinda outside the base, no?

No question reform is critical, but I’m unclear why open primaries and ranked choice voting are considered a single issue. I wonder what the previous results would have been if split into two questions.

Correction: it was 520,000+ Clark County voters (750,000+ was state wide). And by the way, Las Vegas elected a Democrat for mayor as well. But thanks again for wishing pain on your fellow citizens. Such a Republican thing to do.

Las Vegas is in Nevada, but it’s not all of Nevada. Like all states, its rural areas (90% geographically) are red.
On behalf of the 750,000+ Clark County (Las Vegas) voters who helped Harris/Walz win the county, helped elect a Democrat as Senator and 3 Democrats to the House, this is for you: 🖕🏼

I’m insulted by both Trump and by your stigmatizing claim that a senior citizen is only asked to take a cognitive test if the doctor notices a decline. The test is HOW they detect a decline. It’s called not waiting until it’s too late to do something about it.

Grandson of Andrew Mellon. Says a lot right there. How far does $130m go toward troop pay when the DOD monthly payroll is $16 BILLION? Are we sure that’s what it’s intended for?

Medicare premium is projected to increase $21.50/mo; up from $185 this year to $206.50 in 2026. Thats 11%.

The 2026 Medicare premium is yet to be officially announced, but most projections say it’s going up $21.50/month, from $185 to $206.50.

Yes. I’m 74, in general good health physically and mentally, but at every doctor visit (2x yearly) I’m given a few simple cognitive tests. Not because I have a problem, but because they want to catch it early if I begin to develop one.

Important topics for sure, but always sticking to what’s safe. I’m looking for some (rhetorical) fire beyond economics that meets the moment. Curious where/how Mr. Ford spent No Kings day.
