LAS VEGAS-With fresh polling showing him in the lead and his opponent
refusing to debate him in all seven counties of Nevada's new 4th
Congressional District, Republican Danny Tarkanian's congressional
campaign received another boost this week with the endorsement by
the Armenian National Committee - Political Action Committee (ANC-PAC).
The ANC-PAC is encouraging members of the large and growing Armenian
American community in Nevada to vote for Danny Tarkanian on Election
Day. The new congressional district Tarkanian is running to represent
includes portions of Clark County, as well as the rural counties of
Esmeralda, Lincoln, Lyon, Mineral, Nye and White Pine.
"We are proud to announce our support for Danny Tarkanian and look
forward to having him sworn in as a Member of Congress next year at the
U.S. Capitol. He is a talented and proud son of the Armenian American
community," shared Armen Martin, a longtime ANC-PAC supporter. "We
encourage all Nevadans living in the 4th Congressional District
to vote for Danny on November 6th and askthat they encourage their
friends and family to vote for Danny as well," Martin added.
In a recently released poll conducted by SurveyUSA, Tarkanian is
leading his Democrat opponent by a margin of 45 to 42 percent. The
poll was commissioned by the Las Vegas Review-Journal and the 8News
Now and shows that the race is whisker close. The poll also shows that
Tarkanian is running neck-and-neck with his opponent in urban areas of
the district and winning more support in therural counties that make
up an important part of the new congressional district. According
to the Las Vegas Review-Journal, "the poll shows Tarkanian with a
21-point advantage among non-partisan voters (53-32) and picking up
crossover Democratic support at 11 percent, giving him the edge in
the 4th Congressional District, where registered Democratic voters
outnumber Republicans by 10 percentage points."
Earlier this year Danny Tarkanian won the Republican primary for
Nevada's new 4th Congressional District. He achieved this victory by
securing over 32% of the vote and defeating eight other Republican
candidates. This November he will face Democrat State Senator Steven
Horsford, who is the Majority Leader for Nevada's State Senate.
Tarkanian is widely known in the State of Nevada as a strong
conservative who is a proven vote getter. Several years ago Tarkanian
garnered over 230,000 votes in his race for Nevada Secretary of State.
Danny Tarkanian is a graduate of the University of San Diego Law
School, a successful businessman and a dedicated husband and father.
He and his wife Amy live in the Las Vegas area with their four
children. His father Jerry Tarkanian, a proud Armenian American, is
among the most successful college basketball coaches in NCAA history.
His mother Lois Huter Tarkanian is a well-respected educator who
currently serves as a member of the Las Vegas City Council.
The ANC-PAC is a non-partisan federally registered political action
committee established to support campaign committees for Members of
Congress who share the values of the Armenian American community. The
ANC-PAC is at the forefront of efforts to ensure that the voice of the
Armenian American community is clearly heard in our nation's capital.
The ANC-PAC continues a century old tradition of Armenian American
engagement on the public policy issues facing national political
leaders, both in the U.S. Congress and the White House.
