Reid to headline first Flores fundraiser in DC next week

If you want any more evidence that Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid wants Lucy Flores to be lieutenant governor to stop Brian Sandoval from considering a U.S. Senate bid in two years, see below (the invite and the labor pitch):

 

And labor is all-in, too:

Dear XXXX,

 

I am writing today to urge you to support Lucy Flores for Lt. Governor in 

Nevada. Senator Harry Reid is hosting a fundraising breakfast for Lucy 

on March 13, 2014 at Charlie Palmer Steak House, 101 Constitution 

Ave. NW, in Washington, DC at 7:45 a.m. The breakfast invitation is 

attached.

 

Lucy Flores will fight for working families because she comes from one. 

Unlike too many in politics, she has never forgotten those she was 

elected to represent. As a member of the Nevada Assembly, she 

focused on increasing opportunity for Nevada’s middle class and 

improving our education system.  She understands that Nevadans 

want leaders who get things done – not engage in the sort of petty 

partisan battles that divide us without creating a single job or 

educating a single child.

 

Labor in Nevada will support and work hard for Lucy Flores for 

Lt. Governor. She always stands up for working families.  Also, she 

will be on the top of the ticket because our Republican Governor will 

have no serious opponent.  She will definitely be an energizer for 

Hispanic voters who make up 26% of the total population in this 

midterm election.

 

Please join Senator Harry Reid and Nevada Labor in supporting 

Lucy Flores.

 

If you have any questions, do not hesitate to contact me on my cell 

 

 

Fraternally yours,
