First, I would like to once again thank you for giving me the honor of representing the Nevada State Democratic Party as National Committeeman. I am so fortunate to have the opportunity to attend the Democratic National Convention in Denver and I want you to share in this historic event for our party and our country. That’s why I will be sending regular email blasts and submitting and responding to posts on my blog at www.StevenHorsford.com. Please share your input and comments as we all share in this exciting Presidential election.

In the News: Democrats target two Senate Seats |
Las Vegas Review-Journal (August 17, 2008) - CARSON CITY -- With the preliminary round now out of the way, the serious business of party politics has begun for state lawmakers -- and Democrats are looking for a way to take control of the Senate, where they last held the majority a distant 17 years ago. A single Republican seat now gives the GOP control of the 21-member upper house of the Legislature, where Majority Leader Bill Raggio, R-Reno, has held sway since 1993. A shift in one of the 10 state Senate races in the November election could tip the balance. Democrats picked up one seat in the 2006 election, reducing the margin to 11-10.

From the Blog: Campaign Update |
From Beatriz, August 1st, 2008 -
We have been doing very well with our volunteers and phone banking. We have a group named "Senior Advocates for Steven" ,our most dependable group ,comes in every day, mostly in the mornings. In the evenings a group by the name of "Students for Steven" meets frequently. The Clark County Black Caucus also participates in our phone banking nights. We have had a couple of big phone banking nights. All of our phone lines were occupied and we were able to maximize the amount of contact to our constituents. We also have phone banking for our spanish speaking constituents to make sure that every body is getting the message and encouraged to vote. Our phone bankers enjoy calling on behalf of someone who has inspired so many people especially in such welcoming and family-oriented atmosphere here at the office. We make sure our volunteers are well taken care of and comfortable by providing them with food and drinks. Very often, Senator Horsford joins his supporters and phone banks as well. To this day we have made at least 7,000 calls.
