Nevada Madam Seeks Assembly Seat Amid Bordello Fame
Beverly Harrell, owner of Cottontail Ranch near Lida Junction in Esmeralda County, runs for the Nevada State Assembly while openly admitting she formerly operated a bordello. Neighbors describe her as honest and capable, though her past provokes surprise in campaign discussions. She lights on honesty as a campaign theme and notes she would not be bought.
