Here are some more endorsements for Nevada elections in the Clark County Commissioner's races. The county board is one of the most powerful county boards in the country. They get paid $72,000 + a year and currently, it is an entirely comprised of Democrats. In the past, there has been corruption on the board. Now, we just have almost complete incompetence.
Clark County Commission District A: Steve Sisolak (D) vs Barry Herr (R)
Steve Sisolak is about the only conservative/moderate in Nevada Democrat. He has some good things, like his one man battle, at least in the beginning, with the overtime scandal in the Clark County Fire department. He also has fought for some fiscal sanity for Clark County and is not an automatic rubber stamp when it comes to spending.
But Sisolak is a Democrat and he has caused some problems, especially in Laughlin when he appointed all liberal Democrats to the Laughlin town board when he was first elected. He has also helped destroy the coroner's inquest process when a cop kills a person. It used to be an open hearing and now we have to trust the District Attorney to investigate in private and then make a ruling whether a shooting is justified or not. There have also been problems with Clark County Health board and their buildings.
Barry Herr is the GOP candidate and to be honest, I have not heard or seen anything from Herr. Herr has a good idea in which illegals who have to use UMC, the county hospital, that UMC sends the hospital to the country or origin. Of course, there won't be any payments from the countries and he realizes that.
Endorsement: Steve Sisolak
Clark County Commission, District B: Tom Collins vs Ruth Johnson
Tom Collins is the incumbent and he is pretty much a jerk. He has been cited by the cops several times during his term in office and has had other problems. He claims he has done several things for his district, which may be, but he is still a jerk and ill tempered to be a commissioner.
Ruth Johnson is a former school board member seems to have very little work experience. Her occupation is listed volunteer.
A third candidate is Independent American Party is Warren Markowitz who is an attorney but practices in other states and small business owner in a business that failed.
Sucks to be in this district.
Endorsement: None
Clark County Commission Seat C Larry Brown (D) vs Craig Lake (R)
Larry Brown is the incumbent and seems like he is a career politician in the Las Vegas area. He is not a leader and is a center-left candidate.
Craig Lake is a small business owner and wants the board to be more fiscally conservative and deal with UMC, which Brown and the board has really refused to do anything about.
Endorsement: Craig Lake
Clark Commission Seat D: Lawrence Weekly (D) vs Wesely Cornwall (R)
Weekly is the incumbent and is true liberal on the board. Mr. Higher Spending should be his nickname. He is another full time politician who has done little in the private sector.
Cornwall is a 21 year old small business owner and has good conservative views even though he lives in a liberal district. He may be a little young but it certainly beats a professional politician.
Endorsement: Wesley Cornwall
