Nevada Dems unveil 2018 campaign mascot: 'Mitch McTurtle'

Nevada Democrats on Tuesday unveiled their 2018 campaign mascot: a turtle holding a bag of money, meant to mock Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).

Dems plan to use the turtle mascot at campaign events to tie local Republican candidates to the Senate Republican leader.

Democrats are seeking to oust Sen. Dean Heller (R-Nev.), who is already facing a primary challenge from the right from perennial Nevada candidate and businessman Danny Tarkanian, 56.

In August, a Public Policy Polling survey found that Heller's support in the state has cratered since President Trump took office last January, with Heller's approval rating falling as low as 22 percent.
