Today's Primary

Today's primary is the Nevada Primary Election.
The races up for the taking are the G.O.P. and Democratic Gov. primaries. U.S. Congressman Jim Gibbons will most likely easily win the G.O.P. primary over Lieutenant Governor Lorraine Hunt, and State Sen. Bob Beers. On the Democratic side it is a little closer. State Senate Miniority Leader Dina Titus is running against Henderson Mayor Jim Gibson. The late State Controller Kathy Augustine will defeat her oppents and G.O.P. Leaders are already picking a replacement in the State Treasurer's race. In the Race for Lt. Governor State Treasurer Brian Krolicki leads a field of six challengers. In the CD-2 seat vacated by Gibbons who is running for governor is also a contested race. State Secretary of State Dean Heller, Fmr. State Assemblywoman Dawn Gibbons (wife of Jim Gibbons)and Sharron Angle plus two others are fighting for the G.O.P. Nomination. Here is a website to view results tonight: http://www.thegreenpapers.com . Thats it for today!
