Trowbridge Named To Assembly Seat By Clark County Commission

Clark County commissioners have selected the county's former parks and recreation director to fill a vacant Nevada Assembly seat.

Commissioners voted unanimously Tuesday to appoint Glenn Trowbridge to represent Assembly District 37. He was chosen from a pool of 12 applicants.

The vacancy came after Republican Wesley Duncan announced he would resign his seat to become second in command to Attorney General-elect Adam Laxalt. Duncan served one term in the Assembly before being re-elected in November.

Applicants for his seat had to be Republicans. They included Charles Harvey, Brian Hardy, Donald Graham, Chris Meservey, Aretta "Betty" Rumford, Jearld "Jerry" Hafen, Brian Patchett, Bill Cimo, Stan Parry, Rob Lauer and Rene Cantu Jr.
