Harrah's Pressures Employees

The pressure was to help Harry Reid retain his seat in Congress. He was so desperate, he sent an e-mail to Harrah’s, PLEADING for help, which he got. It’s illegal, but he got it anyway. “Elizabeth Crum of Nevada News Bureau has discovered that executives at the casino giant Harrah’s pushed company employees to vote early in an all-out effort to help the Harry Reid campaign, according to internal emails. The stepped-up effort began Wednesday when a Reid staffer sent an email pleading for help to Harrah’s top lobbyist, Jan Jones. Soon after, Marybel Batjer, Harrah’s vice president of public policy and communications, distributed that plea via email to executives throughout the company.” I wonder if Harry would have won without that illegal help?This is the way Democrats will always sway close elections their way.
