Ex-Sen. Dean Heller announces run for Nevada governor
The Hill ^ | 09/19/2021 | Reid WIlson

Posted on 09/20/2021 6:13:16 AM PDT by ChicagoConservative27

Former Sen. Dean Heller (R-Nev.) said Monday he will run for governor in Nevada next year, reentering politics three years after he lost his seat in a Democratic wave.

In a video posted Monday, Heller cast himself as a conservative opposed to mask mandates, defunding the police and lockdowns in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic.

“After serving Nevada in the Senate, I thought I was done with politics,” Heller says. “But look what’s happened to Nevada. We have a governor more interested in putting us out of work than putting us back to work. Las Vegas became a sanctuary city. Violent crime’s exploding. People who work for a living are scared. And I’ve had it.”

Trump didn’t excite voter base? Are you kidding me? Trump had more people at his rally’s then anyone I’ve seen. No one excites the base the way Trumps does. Hell, they are still flying Trump 2020 flags all over the country. This guy is tone def and that alone makes him not an appropriate candidate.

Worthless RINO. But better than current Dem Sisolak who is a true Leftist corruptocrat.

Why vote for Dem Lite when you can vote for the real thing?

Part of the reason Heller was a bad senator was because
he was an ANTI-Trumper. Can’t Nevada find someone who doesn’t have “LOSER” written all over his resume.

Nevada is in big trouble, Sissy Boy has damaged the state.
I hope Trump can find someone to run who isn’t an idiot.

Cruise up to Virginia City NV and see how much support PDJT has there. But, with the demolibs having a super majority in the NV Senate and one seat shy of that in the assembly......... LV and Reno votes crush the rest of the state.

The county Reno + Las Vegas are in, Clark County, is 70% of the population of NV.

Washoe. May as well be Clark though. But, we’re trying.

He lost in 2018 because he was not on board with Trump.

Looking back now however, he may have lost due to election fraud. Nevada has been getting bluer and bluer since the electronic voting machines have been in use.

I LIVE in N Nevada high desert.

When the 2016 Caucus events were held, the location where I went had to keep Xeroxing ballots -—4 times.

My neighbor & I went at 3:45 PM for the building to open at 5 PM.

The doors were already open, and the line was all the way out the door for quite a distance, 2 wide.

When we left, the line was 4 wide & cars/trucks were parked on the football practice field.

There NEVER had been a larger turnout at Nevada Caucus events.

Don’t you EVER try to tell me that Trump isn’t popular.

Now, I think he is even MORE POPULAR in Nevada than he was in 2016.

The Dems keep letting ILLEGALS vote—and the vote by mail is a total fraud.

There were 2 Trump rallies for the 20’20 election held in Carson Valley, Nevada.

Turn away crowd due to no more parking.
