Since inception, this widely followed publication, vegasdesi.com, has endorsed candidates running for the local, state and national elected offices. These endorsements are based upon active interactions with the candidates, their professional & personal background, their stand on issues impacting our community and who believe, commit and share the same values of our growing community, irrespective of the party affiliation in a true non-partisan spirit.

This year general election with a diverse background of candidates poses numerous challenges for our community members to decide on whom to vote for, especially for the local races.
