Nevada's economy is ~40% leisure & hospitality — most in the U.S.

"Suspending" a campaign legally differs from dropping out!
When candidates "suspend" rather than "end" their campaign, they can legally keep raising money to pay off debts and retain any delegates won — a distinction codified in FEC rules used since the 1970s reform era.
Maine's State Senate has only 35 members — one of the smallest in the U.S.!
With just 35 seats, each Maine Senate race carries enormous weight — a single suspended campaign can shift the balance of power. Learn more at Wikipedia
