What do Las Vegans really want?

In a few months the residents of Las Vegas will elect a new mayor and with the new mayor comes a new approach to the city's priorities. A poll conducted by the RJ showed that job creation is the number 1 priority for Las Vegans. Jobs have been the rallying cry for candidates in this and other political races. But, are jobs the only things Las Vegans care about? We discuss what Las Vegans really want as the community prepares to elect a new leader and continues its slow crawl out of the recession.
