Well the local news in Las Vegas, NV today reported that the main Democrat running against Jon Porter in CD3, was dropping out due to "family reasons". Robert Daskas was to be the opponent was had a strong chance to beat Porter. This was kinda dis heartening to hear until....

The news added it is very likely Dina Titus, a State Senator, would take his place to run against Porter. Titus came close to winning the Governorship in 06 and beat the now most un-popular Governor in the nation in CD3 on election day.

Democrats hold a 22,500 voter registration advantage over Republicans in the district and in 06 Porter barely won his district against a political new comer by 1%. Titus, who is well recognized throughout the state and again, won CD3 against Gibbons in the Governors race would surely be able to user Porter out and add another Democrat to the House.
