SPECIAL NEVADA PRIMARY ELECTION EDITION
Readers and subscribers from outside Nevada can stop reading
now and get back to your super family Sunday fun day activities, because this
is a special Nevada-focused election edition of Muth’s Truths since “early
voting” here officially began yesterday.
Cheers.

TARK, TAX HIKE MIKE AND THE NRA
Having rammed through the largest tax hike in Nevada history
despite signing the Taxpayer Protection Pledge, RINO State Sen. Tax Hike Mike Roberson sure as shootin’
can’t run for the open 3rd congressional district seat against conservative
challenger Danny Tarkanian, a Tax Pledge
signer who would actually keep his word, on the tax issue in the GOP primary.
So instead, he’s been attacking Tark on the gun issue,
another potent issue among Republican primary voters. But as we’ve all learned the hard way,
Roberson will outright lie about any issue.
For example, he’s been running Facebook ads like the ones
below saying Tarkanian is “F” rated by the National Rifle Association (NRA)...
He also tweeted on May 14th: “My opponent has an ‘F’ Rating
from the NRA.”
But like just about everything else that comes out of Tax
Hike Mike’s mouth, those claims can now be exposed as yet another outright LIE.
But don’t take my word for it. Here’s the actual 2016 National Rifle
Association/Political Victory Fund (NRA-PVF) ratings that were just released on Friday…
The “Q” simply means the individual is not an incumbent with
a voting record and their rating was derived from their answers to the NRA’s
candidate questionnaire.
In addition, here’s what Danny wrote about this issue on his
campaign website…
“I believe that the Second Amendment protects our God-given right to armed self-defense and oppose all efforts to restrict this fundamental, individual right. I oppose any and all efforts to register guns and their owners, and I oppose any and all efforts to restrict the sale or ownership of guns by law-abiding citizens.”
So there you have it…
Any God-fearing, Bible-thumping, gun-toting conservative who
may have been spooked by Roberson’s misleading political attacks on the Second
Amendment issue should now feel 100% secure in placing their trust in Danny Tarkanian
to protect their gun rights.
TWO THUMBS UP FOR JUDGE JOHNSON
No school reform effort is as important or effective as
giving low- and middle-income parents both the right and the means to exercise
the same kind of private school choice that wealthy families enjoy.
As such, no piece of legislation was of more
importance to Nevada’s kids last year than the establishment of the universal
Education Savings Account (ESA) voucher program.
The program came under immediate legal attack by the ACLU
and the teachers unions. But Judge Johnson
stood tall, refused to buckle under the pressure and recenly ruled in favor of
the ESA program. A ruling in the other
direction could have doomed the futures of yet another generation of Nevada’s
children.
Being the competent and responsible jurist he is, I know
Judge Johnson ruled on the merits of the case and the arguments presented by
both sides, not ideology or politics.
Still, it took a lot of backbone to make the correct call in
the face of such formidable political opposition from the religion-hating ACLU
and the educrats who run and mismanage our current failure factories.
Retain Judge Johnson.
OTHER ENDORSEMENTS
University Regent: District 6 – Michael Wixom. He’s my
neighbor and a good, conservative Republican.
Plus, he somehow pulls off the bow-tie look!
University Regent: District 7 – Dan Rego. Dan’s been the
head of the Nevada Republican Liberty Caucus – an organization of libertarian-leaning
Republicans - for several years. When it
comes to tax-and-spend issues, this constitutional conservative will be on our
side. His head is definitely in the “right”
place.
University Regent: District 13: Jim
Ratigan. Ratigan’s opponent, John
Moran III, is part of Nevada’s political establishment elite. He’s raised over $300,000(!) for an office
that pays less than $3,000 a year. This
office is clearly just a stepping stone for Moran.
State Board of Education, District 1: “Doc” Louk. One of the
candidates for this seat is Tim Hughes, a teacher who supports Common
Core. Louk opposes and wants to scrap
it.
Louk also says he supports breaking
up the Clark County school district into 356 independents school districts so
that parents, teachers and community members make all the decisions. The third candidate in the race, Robert
Blakely, opposes breaking up the school district.
This one’s a no-brainer.
State Board of Education, District 3: Barry
Herr. Barry’s a longtime,
conservative GOP grassroots activist.
The incumbent, Felecia Ortiz, was appointed to the seat by RINO Gov.
Brian Sandoval and supports Common Core.
‘Nuff said.
Las Vegas Justice Court, Department 3 – Harmony Letizia. I just
received a mailer from Letizia opponent, Janiece Marshall. In it, she boasts of being endorsed by the
SEIU, the AFL-CIO, the Culinary Union, the Carpenters Union, the Laborers Union
and more. That’s all I need to know.
Las Vegas Justice Court, Department 14 – JoAnne Chelini. The incumbent, Conrad Hafen,
is a bully who just had a defense attorney slapped in handcuffs for
making an argument on behalf of her client to "teach her a lesson."
SOME DEMOCRAT PRIMARY ENDORSEMENTS
Understand, these are picks in Democrat primary races –
usually the lesser of two or more evils.
These are not my choices for the general election. With that being said…
For U.S. Senate, let’s go with Bobby Mahendra.
Unlike Harry Reid’s anointed candidate, Catherine Cortez-Masto-Reid, Mahendra works in the private sector,
takes no money from special interest groups, and told the Las Vegas Review-Journal, “I think people want the government to
live on less.”
I think he’s right.
In Congressional District 3, Reid’s anointed candidate
is Jacky Rosen. So she’s out.
On the other hand, Reid reportedly told another Democrat
candidate in the race, Jesse Sbaih, not
to run because he’s a Muslim. He’s
definitely an anti-Reid candidate. That’s
good enough for me. Go Jesse, go!
In Congressional District 4, we urge a vote for Lucy Flores. Why?
Because
I think the former gang-banger is the liberal, race-hustling, tax-hiking, open-borders candidate that
incumbent Republican Rep. Cresent Hardy
would have the best chance of beating in November, that's why.
For Clark County Commission, District B: Marilyn
Kirkpatrick.
I don’t agree on that
many issues with MK, but she’s always been open to talking to me about
them. And you won’t find a harder, more
dedicated worker when it comes to constituent services. As Democrats go, she ain’t half-bad.
In State Senate District 4, we’re going with Harvey Munford.
Munford’s voting record in the Legislature
has clearly shown he’s far more of a moderate, independent Democrat than his opponent, Kelvin Atkinson – one of the worst “Black
Lives Matter” race-hustlers in the state.
Go Harvey, go!
In State Senate District 5, I’m going with Nicholas Lash.
He’s a stay-at-home dad and fire-breathing Bernie Sanders supporter who refuses to
take campaign donations in his challenge to incumbent Joyce Woodhouse. He’d be
toast in the general election. Go Nick,
go!
In State Senate District 7, David Parks. I don’t often
agree with Sen. Parks, but our disagreements are always done in an agreeable
fashion.
Assembly District 15:
Lou Toomin. A former legislator and former Republican,
the “Toominator” opposed the $1.4 billion tax hike. The incumbent Democrat legislator voted for
it with a vengeance. Go Lou, go!
Assembly District 18:
Richard Carillo. He’s a rare pro-gun Democrat.
Assembly District 20:
Darren Welsh. He’s running against liberal incumbent
Ellen Spiegel. His first race was for a fifth-grade
advisory committee post and his platform was “running Kool-Aid through water
fountains.” What’s not to like? Go Darren, go!
Assembly District 21: Ben
Nakhaima. He’s an unemployed student
whose campaign platform includes “better school lunches.” What
conservative wouldn’t want to run against THAT in the general election?!! Go Ben, go!
FAMOUS LAST WORDS

cloud of grime and dust wherever he goes, Mrs. Clinton remains enveloped in an
