Here's a news item about two state senators who may face close elections due to redistricting: http://www.lvrj.com/opinion/big-help-for-breeden-copening-132399498.htmlSenator Shirley Breeden (Clark 5A) is the Transportation Committee chair. Though she opposes repeal, she let her committee vote on the most recent repeal bill. That's why we show her as code-yellow right now, even though she's definitely on the red side of the spectrum.
Senator Alison Copening (Clark 6) is an unknown regarding repeal, so she's listed as code-yellow as well. But given our efforts depend on finding the clostest races, we really need to find out Copening's repeal position.
Also related to redistricting, it looks like the Republicans have a fairly good shot at taking the majority in the state senate. All they need to pick up is one senate seat. If that happens, the Transportation Committee chairmanship will change parties as well.
