Sharon Angle, in her opening remarks, said viewers would see a contrast between her and the Senate majority leader.

‘I’m not a career politician,’ she said. Though she has served as a state lawmaker, she noted other work in her life. She said she lives in a suburban house while Harry Reid lives in the Ritz Carlton in Washington, D.C.

Angle said she has voted more than 100 times against tax and fee increases and unconstitutional laws. She said Reid voted more than 300 times to raise taxes and voted for unconstitutional bills, such as the healthcare reform bill, which she called ‘Obamacare.’

Such policies, she said, have hurt Nevada.
