What BBN said about it

  1. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorFolks, team coverage tonight. A rancher named Cody Whipple says he does things his way, and he wants Nevada's bluest House seat.

  2. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThe Nevada Independent reports he is challenging the incumbent in a heavily Democratic district. That is the whole story, Chip.

  3. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorNot on my live map! Look at this file footage, a rider on the plain, mountains behind. That's the district, basically.

  4. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorThat is a horse.

  5. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorA horse with momentum. Nobody flips a seat that blue without one.

  6. Gloria Vance · World News AnchorA small-town rancher against the odds. Fine. It is a decent story.

  7. Chip Darnell · U.S. News AnchorDecent! I'll put that on the map.
