In an interview over the weekend and to be broadcast Tuesday on "Ralston Live," Hillary Clinton scoffed at the notion, put out by her staff, that Nevada is just like nearly all-white Iowa and New Hampshire.
See the clip below and watch Tuesday evening for exclusive interviews with Clinton and Bernie Sanders.
SEIU is going up Monday with Spanish-language radio and television ads in Nevada to support Hillary Clinton just days before Saturday's Democratic caucus.
The union has been on the ground already in the state, claiming to have knocked on over 36,000 doors, identified more than 9,000 Clinton caucus goers and mobilized 55 precinct captains who are first-time caucusgoers.
The ads, which you can see below, will air in Las Vegas, along with print ads in Spanish-language publications. One of the TV...
WELCOME TO THE WEEKLY REPORT
This week:
1. Dem caucus forecasts
2. Smartest/dumbest moves of the week
Just a quick post today, folks. Crazy caucusmania weekend. So some takes on next Saturday’s Democratic caucus and smartest/dumbest. Good stuff, as always, from my smart crew.
►Pretty sad: Continuing signs of the American cultural and political apocalypse...... the partisan fighting just hours after the passing of Justice Scalia. Is it any wonder Sanders, Trump and other outsiders are doing well...
Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders are in a tight race to win Nevada, according to a poll taken this week.
The survey, paid for by the conservative Free Beacon, shows a 45-45 tie. It was conducted by TargetPoint of 1,236 potential Nevada caucusgoers from Feb. 8-10, with a margin of error just under 3 percent. That's a lot of interviews -- "867 interviews were completed using automated telephone technology and 369 were conducted using mobile phones," according to the polling instrument, which I...
After setting up an impressive team of Nevada veterans, including some noteworthy Hispanic operatives, Hillary Clinton arrived in May to lay down a marker on immigration reform.
She met with DREAMERs, who endorsed her last week. She talked a better game on executive orders than President Obama. Her team exuded confidence, especially since Bernie Sanders didn't even have an organization in Nevada.
That was then.
After the disaster in snow-white New Hampshire and the near-death experience in...
More voters registered in Nevada last year than in 2007 and 2011 combined, indicating a heightened level of activism as the caucuses and elections loom.
The numbers (see below) also indicate that as Democrats try to build a large lead before November that conservative groups, especially Engage NV, have done an excellent job maintaining parity. Yes, the Democrats lose more voters due to inactivations (people who can still vote but have not returned cards sent to their addresses). But the GOP-...
MSNBC and Telemundo will co-host a town hall with Hillary Clinton and Bernie Sanders in Las Vegas on Feb. 18, two days before Nevada Democrats hold presidential caucuses, I've confirmed.
The state party will partner with the networks on the event that is sure to draw distinctions on key Nevada issues and those important to Latinos.
Hispanic turnout was 14 percent in the 2008 Nevada caucuses, according to exit polls.
Yes: We matter.
Reno Mayor Hillary Schieve, a nonpartisan who rarely endorses, has embraced her longtime friend, Devon Reese, the Democratic attorney seeking Greg Brower's state Senate seat.
Schieve is at the top of a fundraiser next month for Reese, who is considered an underdog to Heidi Gansert, the GOP hopeful and former assemblywoman and gubernatorial chief of staff seeking the key swing seat. (Businessman Eugene Hoover, a Republican, and Dennis Hof, the Libertarian brothel kingpin, also are running.)

When is an endorsement not an endorsement?
Brenda Romero says she didn't mean to "endorse" Bernie Sanders when she agreed to serve on his "voluntary steering committee."
And the young DREAMer, who is the student body president at a Community College of Southern Nevada campus, did not raise a stink on Jan. 21 when she was listed in a release headlined, "Sanders Campaign Unveils Nevada Latino Steering Committee."
But now, two weeks later, she has endorsed Hillary Clinton, claiming she was misled...
The solar companies have marketed themsleves aggressively to folks, promising lower rates and more.
