DCCC may give Titus money advantage

By Wally Edge
Category: US SenateTags: Jon Porter, Dina TitusTop Story: Opinion

Despite outraising U.S. Rep. Jon Porter (R-Henderson) in the second fundraising quarter by almost $160,000, state Sen. Dina Titus (D-Las Vegas) is still well behind the incumbent in cash on hand. Porter leads with $1.3 million in the bank while Titus lags behind with $553,000.

And yet, if combined with the $916,000 media buy reserved by the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, Porter is actually down in the money race. The DCCC funds aren't committeed -- it's possible they could never materialize if conditions change. But if they come through, Porter really has reason to worry.

"They are both working on the independent voters who will make all the difference in that race, and there aren't going to be many independents in Denver and St. Paul."

-- Mark Peplowski, a political science professor at the College of Southern Nevada, on state Sen. Dina Titus (D-Las Vegas) and incumbent Rep. Jon Porter (R-Boulder City), who will continue campaigning in the 3rd District during their respective national party conventions.
