Is Nevada Gonna Be The Democratic Party Pothole On The Road To 2024 ?

All three of these articles have already been posted here at DU.

Though it might be helpful to have them side by side.

Wherever you stand on this, it is not a good look. Makes me want to take a shower.

Maybe President Biden should go down and knock a few heads together before it gets any dirtier.

would seem to have legitimate reason to wish this person out - and a perfectly qualified candidate in line to replace her. To a lot of people this wouldn't seem a 'problem' so much as a corrective action. "Dems in disarray!"

“Editor’s note: This story has been updated to correct the disposition of Whitmer’s Florida case. We regret the error.”

“Florida law allows judges to rule a felony adjudication withheld, meaning there is no admission of guilt on one’s record, however, the charge remains on one’s record.”

So charged but not tried and obviously not convicted over 25 years ago for exactly what we don’t know.

Common Dreams is a proudly left-leaning publication which Nevada really isn’t. There are 617,473 registered Dems, 565,525 registered Repubs and 578,836 registered as non-partisan. Pretty much a 3-way split.

“This is not a student council election,” attorney Bradley Schrager said. “Those people, certainly the membership of the Democratic Party, deserve to know to whom they are giving those contributions and full information about their backgrounds.”


Bradley Schrager
Top rated legislative & governmental affairs attorney in Las Vegas, Nevada

And just how much of the Nevada Democratic Party's "Resources" were spent on him to dig up dirt and spread it around?

I really, really, don't want a repeat of 2016.
