Pulled from the NRO, it appears that the two most populous counties in Nevada will be listing supposed tea partier Ashjian's party designation as "TPN."

Reid also has piss-poor ballot placement (and Angle has top-notch), but I doubt that matters very much.

He should have legally changed his name to Aareid. 

I don't believe Nevada and other states still use alphabetical order to list candidates, instead of something more random.  In primaries and nonpartisan races, that could have a real effect.  Heck, it might even have a minor effect in a partisan race.  Some think Alvin Greene won in South Carolina because nobody much knew the Democratic Senate candidates and his name was listed first.
