Nevada Evangelicals Are Backing Brothel, Strip Club Owner For State Legislator

A legal brothel and strip club owner won the nomination for a seat on the Nevada state assembly, and now some evangelicals are backing him. Dennis Hof, 71, who declares himself "America's best-known pimp" and runs five legal brothels, was nominated June 12 for a state assembly seat in Nevada and now aims to win in the general elections in November, with the blessing of some of Nevada's evangelical voters, according to Reuters.
