Dead Nevada brothel owner wins Nevada Assembly race

Doncha love it?

A Nevada brothel owner and reality TV star who died last month after fashioning himself as a Donald Trump-style Republican candidate has won a heavily GOP state legislative district.

Dennis Hof defeated Democratic educator Lesia Romanov on Tuesday in the race for Nevada's 36th Assembly District, which includes rural communities and large stretches of desert in the southern part of the state. County officials will appoint a Republican to take his place in the seat.

Hof was found dead Oct. 16 after a weekend of parties celebrating his 72nd birthday. Officials are still determining his cause of death, but they don't suspect foul play.

Hof owned a handful of brothels in Nevada, the only state that allows them to legally operate.

Hof starred in the HBO adult reality series "Cathouse" and wrote a book titled "The Art of the Pimp," akin to Trump's book "The Art of the Deal."

I read this earlier - and I thought - how must it feel to lose to a dead pimp?

Maybe we’ve found someone with less appeal than SJG?

Kind of sad when it's between a democrat and a dead guy, and people vote for the dead guy because they know he's the one that won't raise their taxes.

Elections are so simple even a dead guy can win them.

I'm sure someone will point out that dead voters probably voted, too. Makes sense in a way we'd get a dead candidate at least one time. fitting. ;)
