Campaign manager Robert Uithoven was forced to admit they had illegally spent nearly $18,000 in earmarked general election funds in the Republican primary.

Three-way GOP Bloodbath too Close to Call As Republican Senate wannabes scratch it out in an ever-tightening primary, the Review-Journal has attempted to spin their latest poll to show Sue Lowden as the ticket to Republican victory in November – never mind that every other report on the poll shows all three frontrunners within the margin of error.

US Senate Candidate Sue Lowden waited more than an hour at South Reno's Flowing Tide. But with the beer glasses low and the bill paid, Reno Mayor Bob Cashell still hadn't shown. The public appearance would have followed Cashell reportedly saying he believes Sharron Angle will defeat Lowden in the Republican primary. And in the wake of questions about whether Lowden's campaign RV violates contribution laws, Cashell reportedly criticized Lowden's campaign, saying: "she's suicidal," "suicidal Sue." "He was probably misquoted…

Brian Sandoval has always had trouble keeping his story straight on illegal immigration. But a flip-flop revealed today by the Nevada News Bureau proves all Sandoval’s tough talk on the issue is just more lies and distortions – more proof he’s willing to say anything to get elected. Sandoval posted on his Web site today that, “It was my duty to sentence undocumented immigrants for their crimes.” But a look at Sandoval’s sentencing record shows a pattern of leniency from…
