About two months ago Assemblyman Ty Cobb (AD-26) sent an email with a survey regarding his job performance (leadership and no taxes stance) and his views on the Yucca Mountain Nuclear Waste Repository. Today we have the results and, yes, it's not scientific and is skewed by those who received it in the first place (i.e., people who have signed up to receive email from Cobb), but still is interesting in the fact that contrary to most media reports there are some Nevadans who aren't opposed to the project.
In fact, Cobb's father and a group called Alliance for Nevada's Economic Prosperity have made a $5k TV buy for pro-Yucca ads featuring Nevadans like boxer Joey Gilbert. You can watch them here.
Here are the current survey results:
1. 78% Overall, how satisfied are you with my leadership this session so far?
2. 82% Do you agree with my no new taxes policy?
3. 89% Are you in support of my bill to open up a dialogue regarding honest answers about Yucca Mountain and consider our options to benefit from the site?
4. 43% Would you prefer to continue fighting the Federal Government to block any additional waste transported to Yucca Mountain to the cost of over $10 million dollars per year?
5. 86% Do you support transforming Yucca Mountain into a reprocessing center with a robust, state of the art high-tech R&D Center and receiving payments from states and/or the federal government?

1. i.e please throw the stick again so I can chase it!
2. How'd I do? You told me to let everything that the prior sessions accomplished was garbage and to let it fall apart, right?
3. Yucca equals dollars, right? It's ok because it's in Las Vegas.
4. Should we spend more or less to fight additional waste to Nevada? Tell me what to do. Daddy? What now?. Didn't you get my email? Dad? DADDY! MOMMMMMMEEEEEY!
5. And then we'll have a Repuclican fund raiser and glow in the dark dance and give speeches about good old fashion American know how!
6. Daddy, why won't Bill and Randolph return my emails?
7. Daddy, why didn't you run instead of me.
