On the Record: Senate District 11 candidates Dallas Harris and Lori Rogich

The path to victory for Sen. Dallas Harris (D-Las Vegas) is complicated by the fact that the Culinary Union — a longtime force for getting Democrats elected — withdrew its endorsement of her and other sitting legislators because of their support for a bill ending a statutory mandate that hotel rooms be cleaned each day, and instead endorsed her Republican opponent, Lori Rogich. 

...

Ted Pappageorge, secretary-treasurer for the Culinary Workers Union Local 226, said the union endorsed Rogich “because she is a better candidate.” He also cited Harris’ votes in 2023 against the union's efforts to introduce a state lottery, the room cleaning mandate and a union-backed public financing plan to support the establishment of a stadium for the Oakland Athletics in Las Vegas.
