Endorsements

AnniePAC announced today the endorsement of first-time candidate Dr. Steven DeLisle for Nevada Assembly District 29.  He’s pro-gun rights, pro-business, pro-life, pro-school choice and has signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge.

Steven is a dentist-anesthesiologist and has been attending Southwestern Law School.  He owns and operates 14 dental offices and built the first Dental Ambulatory Surgical Center in Nevada to help young children and those with special needs.

As a cancer survivor, Steven says he “will fight to oppose any (health care) plan that puts a bureaucrat between patients and their doctor.”

The incumbent in the race is Democrat Assemblywoman Lesley Cohen.  The district has a 2,200 Democrat voter registration advantage with 11,000 non-partisans.

Cohen lost the seat to a Republican in 2014, and barely won it back in 2016 by just 212 votes out of almost 29,000 cast.  She kept the seat in 2018 with just 51% of the vote.  So this is a competitive, winnable seat.

“Steven is a small business owner and strong fiscal conservative,” said Assemblywoman-elect Annie Black, founder and president of AnniePAC.

“He’s exactly the kind of person we’re going to need in the 2021 session to help rebuild our state from the devastation of the economic shutdown caused by Gov. Sisolak and the Democrat majority in the Legislature.  We’re proud to offer him our official endorsement and I look forward to serving with him in Carson City next year.”

(Mesquite, NV) – AnniePAC announced today the endorsement of Richard McArthur in Nevada Assembly District 4.

Richard has represented this district in the 2009, 2011 and 2017 sessions and has earned a 90% Lifetime rating from the American Conservative Union.  He’s pro-gun, pro-business, pro-life, pro-school choice and has signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge.

Richard won the GOP primary back in June despite being outspent by around $156,000 to $22,000.

The Democrat incumbent he’ll face in the general election, Connie Monk, defeated him in 2018 by just 120 votes in a district where Democrats now only have only an 11-voter registration advantage and around 12,000 non-partisans.

So this is definitely a potential pickup seat.

“Richard doesn’t just talk the talk,” said Assemblywoman-elect Annie Black, founder and president of AnniePAC.  “During his three terms serving in Carson City, he’s been a solid, dependable, proven conservative vote.

“Not only do we need him back, we need a lot more like him.  AnniePAC is proud to offer Richard McArthur our official endorsement in Assembly District 4.”

(Mesquite, NV) – AnniePAC announced today the endorsement of Jill Dickman in Nevada Assembly District 31.

Jill represented this district in the 2015 session during which she earned an impressive 94% rating from the American Conservative Union.  She’s pro-gun, pro-business, pro-life, pro-school choice and anti-tax.

The incumbent, Skip Daly, is the only Democrat in the Legislature to represent a Republican-majority district, so this is decidedly a GOP pick-up opportunity.

“It’s disappointing that the Republican Assembly Caucus didn’t endorse Jill, their former conservative colleague, in the primary,” said Assemblywoman-elect Annie Black, founder and president of AnniePAC, “but she won anyway.  AnniePAC is proud to give Jill our official endorsement and I’m looking forward to serving with her in the 2021 session.”

(Annie Black) – AnniePAC announced today the endorsement of Wes Boger for Mesquite City Council Seat #5.

As noted in a profile featured in The Progress, Wes grew up in Monterey, California and went to work as a two-way radio installer after graduating from high school…

“By the age of 25, he was asked to be the General Manager of a new Silicon Valley start-up company entering the then-new field of Internet radio. Wes successfully led that company through the dot-com crash without having to lay anyone off or go into debt.

“But at the age of 30, Wes decided he’d had enough of big city life. He had started an online side business which had achieved some success. This would allow he and his wife to live wherever they wanted. They chose Mesquite and moved here is 2005.”

“Wes said that his experience in starting and leading small businesses could be valuable to the City at this difficult time.”

Wes is married with two sons who attend Mesquite public schools.

“Every community in Nevada is facing tremendous challenges trying to rebuild our economy that’s been devastated by Gov. Sisolak’s shutdown orders,” said Assemblywoman-elect Annie Black, founder and president of AnniePAC.

“Wes is a conservative small businessman with experience in creating private sector jobs who’s also been extremely involved in our local schools and has the support of our law enforcement officers.

“Our community will be well-served having Wes represent us on the council,” Black concluded, “and AnniePAC is proud to offer him our endorsement.”

AnniePAC announced today the endorsement of conservative firebrand Katie Williams for the District B seat on the Clark County (NV) School Board.

“I don’t pander for votes,” Katie says proudly.  “I am who I am – a Christian, a conservative, a veteran, a mom.”

Katie joined the National Guard on her 17th birthday and served in Afghanistan in support of Operation Enduring Freedom VIII as a driver and substitute gunner.  Her husband is a paramedic, and the couple have a 4-year-old daughter.

In 2019 Katie was stripped of her Ms. Nevada crown over her outspoken conservative views, including her support for President Trump.

The small businesswoman has called for an independent audit of the district’s finances, and has pledged to donate her paychecks back to education programs until every school in her district reaches a 4- or 5-star level.

Katie will face Jeff Proffitt, a registered Democrat and union boss for Sheet Metal Workers Local 88, in the general election.  He’s been endorsed by state and local teachers’ unions – the same unions that are largely responsible for the failure of our public schools and that relentlessly block true education reform efforts.

Proffitt opposes parental school choice, including charter schools, stating plainly: “I am not a fan.”  He also supports raising taxes and “will do my part in lobbying for proper levels of funding.”

“AnniePAC supports conservatives who will not only vote the right way but are willing to rock the boat and stir the pot,” said Assemblywoman-elect Annie Black, founder and president of AnniePAC.

“Katie has proven she’s willing to fight for school choice while resisting calls to simply throw more money at the problems plaguing our public schools.  She’s exactly the right person at exactly the right time for exactly the right seat on the Clark County school board.”

QUOTES OF THE DAY

“Unfortunately, conservative values are not just under attack in the pageant world; they are under attack everywhere. In no place is that attack more present than within America’s public schools.” – Katie Williams

Annie PAC is proud to endorse Republican Andy Matthews for Nevada Assembly District 37.  Andy is a proven, battle-tested conservative who has signed the Taxpayer Protection Pledge.

Born in 1978 in New Bedford, Massachusetts, Andy graduated from Boston University’s College of Communication, and began his professional career as a sports journalist at national media outlets including FOX.

After years in sports media, Andy realized that his true passion was fighting for the principles that made America great. He moved to Nevada and has been helping Nevadans fight for freedom since 2006.

Andy served for nearly four years as the president of the Nevada Policy Research Institute, a non-profit organization that has served as Nevada’s foremost proponent of conservative principles, focusing on issues including education reform, fiscal accountability and government transparency.

Under Andy’s leadership, NPRI led the intellectual effort against the margin tax ballot initiative in 2014, and was instrumental in the measure’s lopsided defeat at the polls. NPRI also played a leading role in increasing educational freedom in Nevada, promoting the Education Savings Account program that put the Silver State at the forefront of the national school choice movement. Andy also led NPRI’s informational campaign to help thousands of Nevada public school teachers opt out of their union, saving those teachers hundreds of dollars each year and providing them greater flexibility.

Since his time at NPRI, Andy has gone on to serve as Executive Director at Morning in Nevada PAC, which was created in 2015 by friends of then-Nevada Attorney General Adam Laxalt, and whose mission is to identify, educate, motivate and activate citizens in Nevada to advance conservative causes and elect conservative candidates. Andy also served as Policy Director on Laxalt’s 2018 campaign for Nevada Governor.

Having spent his early life in the liberal Northeast, Andy has gained a deep love and appreciation for the individualism and liberty-inspired ideals that define the great State of Nevada and the American West. And he is committed to protecting those ideals as the next Assemblyman from District 37.
