I hope that change translates all the way to the primary in June and the election in November. Now that’s Hope and Change we can all get behind! Did you realize the mayor of Las Vegas is an Independent and the mayors of Henderson, North Las Vegas, and Mesquite are all Democrats? Did you know the Nevada State Controller, the Secretary of State, the Attorney General and State Treasurer are also all Democrats? Are you aware not ONE Republican sits on the Henderson City Council? Are you comfortable with the phrase, “But they can afford a tax hike because . ”? These are all reasons why the February Precinct Meetings are so important. Saturday, February 22nd is the date for the Precinct Meetings. This is the first step towards getting Republicans elected. It’s not too late to offer to help. Call either Virginia Finnegan at 702-270-0425 or CCRP at 702-258-9184 and volunteer. If you have not received your Voter Registration Card, which you should have by now, call the Election Department at 455-VOTE (8683) and alert them you need your card or you may need to register to vote. The Voter Registration Card will identify your Precinct # and where your Precinct Meeting will be located. Voter registration is starting soon. This is an important on-going effort in which our club excels. Linda Schlinger and Dot Kazanjian will soon be asking for volunteers for this year’s efforts. Be sure to sign up with them to help “Turn Nevada Red.” Should you find you need to register to vote because you don’t have your Voter Registration Card, call either Linda or Dot and have them register you ! Our February 25th Luncheon Guest Speaker is Mark Hutchison. There are two sides to every issue and now we can hear his. And don’t forget March 25 is our Candidates’ Forum. We’re going to have candidates who are running for a wide array of positions at the state and local levels. Hope to see you at both of these luncheons. A good battle plan that you act on today can be better than a perfect one tomorrow. - Gen George S.

  • SJR3 March 2, 2015 Bob Miller: I Support
    Testimony from the Senate Committee on Legislative Operations and Elections Re: SJR3 March 2, 2015 Bob Miller: I support S.J.R. 3. From 1987 to 1989, I was Lieutenant Governor of the State. The Governor at that time was Richard Bryan. We did not run as a ticket, but we were both of the same political party. At that time, besides presiding over the Senate, the Lieutenant Governor chaired the Commissions on Economic Development and Tourism. Because Governor Bryan and I had a good relationship, he assigned various duties and additional responsibilities to me. One assignment was chairing a task force studying the May 4, 1988, Las Vegas Valley explosion of the Pacific Engineering and Production Company of Nevada, commonly called PEPCON. Our relationship was a good example of having two individuals trust each other and work together. In 1989, I became Governor and held that office for the next 10 years. During that time, I had three Lieutenant Governors, the first of which was me, since I was both Lieutenant Governor and Governor. That worked well as I seldom disagreed with myself. The other two Lieutenant Governors were both Republicans—Sue Wagner and Lonnie Hammargren. Lieutenant Governor Wagner and I had a good relationship with a significant element of trust between us. She had a limited number of responsibilities, which was characteristic of us having not run as a ticket. The latter 4 years of my term with Lieutenant Governor Hammargren were quite a bit different. During that time, the State was uniformly opposed to bringing nuclear waste to the Yucca Mountain Nuclear Waste Repository.

Brookman Elementary School started with the drumline from Eldorado High School parading through the halls and concluded with hand-held confetti canisters being fired into the air. In between, the entire student body heard from various local officials who congratulated them for their record and the reason behind their record-setting attempt that took place in January. At the start of the 2015-16 school year, the staff wanted to encourage students to read more and increase their reading proficiency. The school partnered with Entertainer Adam London, who said he would purchase a glow stick for every book the students read. By January, the students had read more than 20,000 books and the world's longest continuous string of glow sticks was put together to commemorate their achievement. In addition to reaching their goal, the students also became the first school in the state of Nevada to set a Guinness World Record. City of Las Vegas Mayor Carolyn Goodman was joined by representatives from Gov. Brian Sandoval's office, Lt. Gov. Mark Hutchison's office and U.S. Senator Harry Reid's office in congratulating the students.

ISSUE 3-14 ELECTRONIC EDITION NOVEMB E R 2014 ELECTION AFTERMATH What started out to be a ho-hum election in Nevada suddenly changed with the start of early voting. The change in the tenor of the election began with the surprise of Republicans making an unprecedented showing at the polls, particularly in Clark County during the first couple of days of early voting. That showing unleashed a flood of money from groups on both sides of the political spectrum. And when the final votes were tallied, Nevada turned from purple to red, and for the first time since 1929, Republicans held all constitutional offices and the Nevada Senate and Assembly. Overall the turnout was abysmal, with only 45.2 percent of voters casting ballots statewide.
