Republican wreckage

Okay, here's your promised analysis: It was a bad, bad, bad night for the Republican Party in Clark County.

Four bright-ish spots: Benton seems likely to eke out a win on late returns, and there's a distant chance Mielke could crawl back from the brink. The rookie Herrera totally squashed Duplessie and Boldt has yet to lose any race he's ever run.

I hear the party might be having a rough time elsewhere, too.

It's late.

More tomorrow.
