We know some of you have already gone to the polls, but for you die-hard traditionalists who wait until Election Day, we’ve got some new info. Las Vegas Night Beat has weighed in with primary election endorsements from the perspective of the gay community, and we’ve got them for you.

Not many surprises, to be sure, as many of the endorsed candidates are Democrats who support gay rights. Jack Carter gets the nod for U.S. Senate, incumbent Shelley Berkley is endorsed for another term in the House and newcomer Tessa Hafen is supported for the 3rd Congressional District. Up north, in an exception to the rule, Night Beat supports Secretary of State Dean Heller to replace U.S. Rep. Jim Gibbons in Congress.

Speaking of Gibbons, the magazine supports his rival, state Sen. Dina Titus for governor. Democrat Bob Unger gets the nod for lieutenant governor, while gubernatorial son Ross Miller is supported for secretary of state. For treasurer, Geoffrey VanderPal gets the nod.

In other top primary races, Night Beat supports < b>Chris Giunchigliani for Clark County Commission; Frank Cremen for district attorney; Michael Douglas for state Supreme Court Seat F; Nancy Becker for state Supreme Court Seat G; and either Laurie Bisch or Bill Conger for Clark County sheriff. (In another dual endorsement, the publication gives its backing to both Richard “Tick” Segerblom and Ben Contine in Assembly District 9.

Perhaps most helpful to the gay community -— although it should be of concern to people of good will everywhere in Las Vegas — is the magazine’s notation of candidates who signed the anti-gay protection of marriage pledge. Because we agree that intolerance should be a disqualifying factor for those who hold public office — especially judicial offices — we reprint that roster of shame here, along with the offices for which those candidates are running. Consider it a public service.
