Question 2 was an anti-same-sex marriage constitutional amendment passed by popular referendum in Nevada in 2000 and 2002. This video records a debate between Richard Ziser, director of the referendum's sponsoring organization, the Coalition for the Protection of Marriage in Nevada [CPM], and Liz Moore, director of Equal Rights Nevada [ERN], an organization established by the Nevada queer community to fight Question 2. The program which hosted this debate, moderated by announcer Nancy Byrne, was Day One Vegas, a call-in half-hour public affairs program sponsored by the Las Vegas Sun newspaper and broadcast on Las Vegas ONE, a 24-hour local news network which was a collaboration among the Las Vegas Sun, KLAS-TV Channel 8, and Prime Cable [Prime was purchased in 1998 by Cox Cable/Cox Communications], on channels 1 and 39. The general manager of Las Vegas ONE was Robert "Bob" Stoldal. The network operated from April 6, 1998 through January 9, 2010.

This video records the second debate among the primary election candidates for Nevada Supreme Court seat E in 2004. This race was notorious as one of the most expensive in Nevada's election history to that date, and became known derisively as the "$1 Million Race." The candidates here are former Nevada State Senator Lori Lipman Brown; former chairman of the Nevada Republican Party, John Mason; then Nevada Eighth Judicial District Court judge, Ron Parraguirre; and Douglas "Doug" Smith, then a Clark County Justice of the Peace. Parraguirre won this primary election on September 7, 2004, and went on to win the general, as well, on November 2, 2004. The program which hosted this program was renowned journalist Jon Ralston's Face to Face. [debate only: 00:00:00 - 01:30:47]
