Erin Bilbray has the name recognition – her father was a longtime former Congressman – but can she overcome a two-term incumbent and win Nevada’s 3 rd Congressional District? That’s what she’s trying to do and she has little more than a month left to do it.
And after some backlash a year ago after she called the campaign tactics of Republican Joe Heck “un-American,” has she given up on negative campaigning? Her latest advertisement says little of Heck but features her daughter. We talk to her how she would vote on bombs and troops in the Middle East, student loan debt, Nevada’s economy and more.
