Venture Capitalist Guy Nohra was in Fallon last week introducing himself to local Republicans as he campaigns in the Republican primary for the office of Nevada Governor.

Nohra told the audience he was born in Lebanon and at an early age saw his country torn apart by ethnic and religious strife. When he was 15, he took up arms to defend his family and his Christian faith. Soon after, for his safety and to continue his education, his family sent him to live with his aunt in America.
He has been traveling across Nevada and taken two listening tours, visiting every community in the state to meet the voters and hear what issues are of concern.

There is no planning, they are reacting to the latest crisis, not governing,” One issue he had heard over and over is the need for Broadband in rural areas, and he jokingly agreed. “When I’m in rural Nevada my phone is never working, when I’m out I can’t fundraise.”
He also said in spite of the legislature being held by a majority of Democrats, as governor he would have veto power and he would use that tool.
