A rally Sunday in Las Vegas will launch an effort to register 1 million voters and target swing states in the midterm elections. Democrats believe they have a good chance of winning the seat held by embattled Republican Sen. Dean Heller and weakening the GOP’s hold on the chamber. She’s now a candidate for the seat held by retiring U.S. Rep. Carol Shea-Porter, a fellow Democrat. Democratic officeholders pledging to elect more progressive candidates in swing states will be among the speakers in Las Vegas. Last year’s march in Washington sparked debate over inclusion, with some transgender minority women complaining that the event seemed designed for white women born female.
