Cliven Bundy Stumps on Behalf of Nevada Fringe Party Candidate
Though he has been largely exiled from the mainstream media in the wake of his nakedly racist remarks following the armed showdown he led against federal agents, Nevada rancher Cliven Bundy manages to keep popping up on the political scene in Nevada, still spouting his far-right antigovernment “Patriot” views.
Most recently, Bundy made an appearance in Reno on behalf of Nevada Republican congressional candidate Russell Best, who is running for the state’s 4th District congressional seat under the banner of the fringe Independent American Party.
The incumbent, first-term Democratic Rep. Steven Horsford - who demanded federal action when Bundy supporters reportedly began stopping residents at roadway checkpoints near the Bundy ranch - is favored to win, according to race handicappers, against GOP candidate Crescent Hardy and Best.
