Two candidates with serious political pedigrees are facing off to be the state's next Attorney General. One of the candidates is Adam Laxalt. He's political royalty, especially in Nevada, but he has not been well known until now. He is running for Attorney General and old guard GOP are getting out in front to support him. 

Host Alex Cohen talks to Las Vegas-based reporter Jon Ralston, who writes about Laxalt in the current issue of Politico magazine.
