In the Republican primary for attorney general, Sigal Chattah — who has staked out some extreme positions like wanting to prosecute women who get abortions, despite abortion being protected in Nevada — is currently leading with 48 percent. More establishment-aligned Tisha Black is not far behind, however, with 44 percent. Bear in mind that these results are just from Clark County; northern Nevada may have voted differently.

Yeah, Geoffrey, he really impressed folks with his campaign, coming out of nowhere to raise $4 million and give the scion of a Nevada political dynasty a genuine race. He has quite a personal story, too, having been badly burned by a roadside bomb in Afghanistan.

I was going to say something similar, Geoffrey. Laxalt was always the front-runner in that primary, but Brown did still mount a pretty impressive challenge.
