NON-PARTISAN COOK REPORT UPGRADES NV-02 RACE
Reno, NV – The Cook Political Report, an independent non-partisan
publication that analyzes campaigns across the country, has upgraded
the competitiveness of Nevada's 2nd Congressional District from a
“solid Republican” district to “likely Republican.”
The Cook Political Report noted in it’s write-up on the race that “the
poor national climate for the GOP and the DCCC's unprecedented
financial edge" makes this district "worth keeping tabs on."
"This change is a sign of growing momentum in Jill Derby's campaign for
change," said Derby Campaign Manager David Mason. "It's beginning to
become clear across the nation that Dean Heller's extremist voting
record has disappointed many Nevadans who expected a more moderate,
independent voice in Congress.
Nevada's 2nd Congressional District is one of more than twenty
Republican-held House seats that moved from the Solid Republican to
Likely Republican category, typically the most difficult change for a
district once considered "safe" to make.
