Grading Nevada Representatives on Online Poker
Poker Player Alliance released its ratings for politicians vis-a-vis online poker.
For Nevada we have:
NV-Senator John Ensign (R) - FNV-Senator Harry Reid (D) - F
NV-01 Shelley Berkley (D) - A+
NV-02 Dean Heller (R) - A
NV-03 Jon Porter (R) - A
Shelly Berkeley is the top of the class and I suspect her name will be right up there with Barney Frank (D- Mass) and Ron Paul (R - Texas) as a proponent of bringing back the rights of Americans to play online poker.
Our fine and upstanding Senators Harry Reid and John Ensign get failing marks... and I seriously doubt they care.
A shame they didn't rate the major party challengers and give a quick five word explanation of why they gave the marks they did to various Representatives.
