Is NV Gov looking to be Sisolak vs Cloobeck? I have a hunch Ross Miller runs for the open AG slot personally

Cloobeck may run for Senate instead.

Interesting. I wonder if Aaron Ford guns for a different statewide office in that case.

I don't know why I know so much about NV politics...

Any word on Rep. Mark Amodei? I remember reading awhile back that he would consider running for governor if Dean Heller didn't run. Would Amodei challenge Laxalt in the primary?

Who'd be the top recruits to run for his seat if he gets in?

Maybe one of the state legislators from Reno? Just a guess.

Any chance of the Democrats picking up that seat in a wave?

Middletown, CT mayor Dan Drew (D) has formed an exploratory committee for Governor. My state sources say Malloy has said he won't run, but are pissed at Drew for doing this.

CT: First Selectman of Trumbull Tim Herbst (R) is in.

He's probably one of the strongest Republicans that will run, and could very well be the next Governor of Connecticut.

Is Tim Herbst unpopular with the GOP establishment? He strikes me as an incredibly capable person but also kind of an a-hole. I'd be surprised if they just let him skate to the nomination.

Seems to be a very agressive "bulldog" and fiscal conservative. It would be interesting to know his views on social issues - after all Connecticut is not a socially conservative state.

PLEASE let him run. I can't wait to see the ads about how he's literally out for your blood.

Today Mike Johnston, a former state senator from Colorado, announced his candidacy for governor. I don't know a whole lot about him, but he seems alright.

It seems clear from reporting that Miller isn't running for anything.

Looking more and more like Sisolak is a lock which could be big in knocking out Heller as well
