“Nevada Republicans are planning a campaign to persuade voters to cast ballots for former Assembly candidate and brothel owner Dennis Hof, who died suddenly on Tuesday,” the Nevada Independent reports.
“Although details are sparse, the effort is a clear indication of Republican efforts to ensure they hold a reliably Republican-leaning Assembly District despite the untimely death of the candidate.”
“You just can’t get the $5 million to 10 million without whoring yourself out and I’m not going to do that.”
— Brothel owner Dennis Hof (L), quoted by the Reno Gazette Journal, on his decision not to run for U.S. Senate.
