In announcing his campaign for governor, Democrat Aaron Ford made no mention of helping middle-class workers and retirees. No mention of curtailing high gasoline prices or grocery prices. No mention of high DMV taxes. No mention of high homeowners and auto insurance prices. No mention of high trash bills or increasing water bills. No mention of whether he supports a 3 percent cap on property taxes. Is Mr Ford really for working families?

What I don’t get is why, with the water crisis, we continue to build around 12,000 new homes here in Las Vegas every year.

A woman gets probation for pulling out a gun and firing shots at a group of individuals on the Strip? Insanity.
