Level of Description
Scope and Contents
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]
