Review-Journal endorses Shelley Berkeley (D) for Las Vegas mayor.

Ms. Seaman wants to ensure that the city has the services to entice the homeless to move off the streets. She favors the city’s controversial “camping ban” as essential to combating the problem. She also embraces the governor’s call for more developable land and points to federally funded, affordable housing projects in Las Vegas as evidence the city is moving forward on the issue.

Both Ms. Berkley and Ms. Seaman insist they would run a transparent City Hall to the benefit of local taxpayers.

While both candidates hold similar positions on various policies, Ms. Berkley’s commitment to public service runs broad and deep. Her 14 years in Congress give her a wealth of experience on a variety of issues that are vital to a growing municipality. She would be a strong, vocal, enthusiastic and influential ambassador for Las Vegas, and she has the relationships to build the bridges that will help get things done. “There is nobody more suited to take this city to the next level,” she said, “and that’s where I intend to take it.”

Las Vegas voters should elect Shelley Berkley as their next mayor.
