#BREAKING AP has called Ruben Kihuen as the winner of the NV Democratic primary for U.S. Representative, District 4


If Sanders did one thing this election, he proved that the people could overcome the influence of money on their elections. He sure spent a lot trying.

1. Good!

4. I remember Lucy Flores from after the Nevada Convention days.. she actually

called the vicious BS protesters out.. which is more than sanders did.

Glad, Super4Hillary, Rueben Kihuen WON!

Gracias Sascha!

14. Good for her! eom

[Stand and Fight]

16. Not quite. The next day she backpedaled after they assailed her on social media.

That's when she lost me totally. I had emailed her commending her on her stance, and she emailed me back that night personally. I was impressed with that; however, the next day she gave into the Berners and made a reversal.

21. Wow.. that's good to know, SaF.. I did an OP on it @ the time.. I hadn't

heard about the back-peddling.

And, now she's lost.. They couldn't save her.

[Stand and Fight]

22. Yep. As usual their revolution forgot about the showing up to vote part!

[jmowreader]

24. Hard to blame her

A few death threats will do that to someone, and I'd be Captain Renault-level shocked if they didn't make any.

5. Good to hear! Thanks :-)

6. The revolution didn't show up again?

Not surprised.

7. ...

11. To the extent that they even cared, they only cared about Bernie. And most of that was only to...

spite Hillary.

8. Did the UNLV kids forget?

[displacedtexan]

10. School's out.

They've gone home to sleep all day.

25. The revolution has to wait

Its summer.

[SunSeeker]

9. Good.

[BootinUp]

27. luv grumpy cat!!

[Stand and Fight]

12. Yep. My wife and a large group of friends voted for him and Catherine Cortez Masto.

Her unwavering support of Berners and their actions at the conventions convinced us to throw our support behind Ruben.

[BlueMTexpat]

15. It's great to hear that Cortez Masto

won too!

13. Copy and paste Flores lost?

It goes to show u that it's all about organizing and knowing that all poltics is local.

[Stand and Fight]

17. I don't understand the reference, "Copy and Paste Flores". Please enlighten me! Thanks!

[jimw81]

23. Its a great story

At the beginning of her campign she got caught by a NV reporter copying sanders platform word for word onto her website and in fundraising emails to donors. The reporter mocked her on twitter and gave her that name

[Stand and Fight]

26. Oh boy... I'm guessing it was Jon Ralston who caught her... That's pretty bad. LOL

Thanks for informing me!

[DemonGoddess]

18. Good!
