292 Dan Schwartz for Governor Presentation – 2018 Nevada Republican Primary

By

The Dan Schwarts Presentation to the RMC

Dan is a Silver Sponsor but we were unable to fit in a Timelines of Success or Meet The Voter interview but he has promised us that after the election we will get together. We have gone ahead and put Dan’s presentation was on Tuesday, May 31, 2018, to the RMC.

About Dan

Dan Schwartz has been called an “Independent Voice” and an “Outsider” because he has stood up to the insider deals that Carson City calls its own. Dan is a veteran and a successful businessman who ran for State Treasurer in 2014 because he was tired of seeing elected officials mismanage the business of Nevada. After winning the election and arriving in Carson City, Dan was hit with the hard truth that our state isn’t run by the people or even their elected leaders. Our State is run by the lobbyists and political insiders with the fattest wallets and best connections.

Dan’s is now running for Governor because it’s time to end pay-to-play and to realize Nevada’s potential for a better community and a stronger, more diversified economy.

291 Craig Mueller for Nevada Attorney General – 2018 Nevada Republican Primary

By

The Craig Mueller Interview

Craig is up from Las Vegas and we are in the Peppermill Casino for this interview. Born in Las Vegas, he is a Native Nevadan. After high school, he headed to the east coast to enter the Naval Academy (Go Army! Beat Navy!) The Army-Navy Game has made a lasting impression on Craig.

About Craig

Craig Mueller is a lifelong conservative, former naval officer, and veteran lawyer who has lived here in Las Vegas for over 40 years. He has two young children with his wife and business partner Cristina Hinds. After a long and successful legal career, Craig is seeking an opportunity to give back to the community that has allowed him to prosper through public service. He believes that as Attorney General, he will have as clients the citizens and constitution of the state of Nevada.

Craig’s experience as an attorney is unrivaled in the race for Attorney General in Nevada. He served as deputy district attorney and for over two decades has run his own criminal defense firm with his wife Cristina. He has also represented several conservative causes in the courtroom. With over 25 years in the courtroom, Craig has personally run over 150 jury trials. He founded the DUI task force while in the District Attorney’s office. Just since announcing his candidacy this fall he has argued and won a unanimous decision in front of the 9th Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco.

The Attorney General is charged with managing over 150 attorneys throughout the state handling all types of legal matters. The Attorney General is also responsible for ensuring that the all governmental organizations within the state are operating in compliance with the law and that the federal government does not overstep its authority within the state. Craig Mueller has a wealth of experience and a proven track record in all of these aspects. When you elect Craig Mueller Attorney General, you will have hired the best lawyer for the job.

Craig grew up here in Las Vegas and returned after serving as an active duty naval officer as a Missile and Fire Control Officer in the Persian Gulf and as Deputy Project Manager at the Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command. In addition to the discipline and other character building experiences one tends to find in the military, Craig also gained experience managing large organizations from being directly responsible for over 140 sailors while on ships and later being responsible for the assignment of over 40,000 enlisted sailors and $14,000,000 budget as a personnel officer. During his time on active duty, Craig got his law degree from The University of Baltimore School of Law.

287 Eddie Lorton for Mayor 2018 – Meet The Voter Interview by Bill Conrad

By

Podcast: Play in new window | Download

Eddie Lorton’s Early Years in Reno

Eddie Lorton’s family moved to Reno when he was 6 months old; now he has called Reno home for more than 56 years. He went to Reed High School where he continued to play baseball, basketball, and football. When asked about sports, Eddie said, “I would rather play than watch.” In the summers at the Nugget Casino Resort in Sparks, he worked as the prime rib cook. Between sports and working his time was always filled. His dad was a general manager at car agencies and his mom also worked a the Nugget Casino.

His Business Years

While working he saved up and bought his first home. He later took a second on his home and invested in the stock market and buying more income real estate. He has done well and now has a couple second homes in Graeagle, California and in Winchester Bay, Oregon.  He also runs his own carpet cleaning company serving homeowners as well as large apartments,  hotels, and casinos.  Eddie worked 20 hour work days. He used to “work hard” now he works “smart.”

Eddie is very concerned that the 3% tax cap may be eliminated. This could affect property taxes in a major way. One of our draws is our tax structure. This 3% tax cap could raise property owners taxes by 200% to 300%

Eddie’s Life and Success Principle

  1. Honesty – Eddie will not lie to gain a vote. He will be upfront with the voter and not waver to the special interest.
  2. Integrity – Be upfront and honorable. You should stick with what is best for the majority of the people.
  3. Work Hard and Smart – You have to earn your keep. Eddie has worked hard and smart his entire life. He will bring that same work ethic to the City of Reno.

Eddie Campaign for the Mayor of Reno

Eddie believes that he can make a difference. One of his first priorities is to sell off all surplus properties. We are on an upswing and we will get top dollar for the taxpayer. We need to pay off our debt, keep care of our infrastructure and build a new police station. We should also focus on infill and maximize our existing infrastructure. The citie’s surplus land will also eliminate some of the strain on the cities affordable housing.  He also believes that our gas tax has not been used properly and our tax dollars should come back to the city for repairs and maintenance and that builder should “pay their own way.”

Favorit Places to Eat in Reno
