Jack Carter, the 2006 Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate, endorsed Barack Obama's presidential campaign today.

Carter, the son of former president Jimmy Carter, said it was  the "constant refrain to join together to fight the divisiveness in Washington", that impressed him about Obama.

Along with Carter the Obama campaign also announced other endorsements from prominent Nevadans including these:

Assemblyman Mo Denis, Las Vegas – Nevada State Assemblyman, District No. 28
 
Evelyn Mount, Reno – Community Activist
 
Steve Platt, Carson City – Chairman, Carson City Democratic Central Committee
 
State Senator Mike Schneider, Las Vegas – Nevada State Senator, District No. 11
 
Jessica Sferrazza, Reno – Reno City Councilwoman, Ward 3

"For six months we have been handing the Board of Elections smoking gun after smoking gun, saying, 'We want you to prosecute these people.' They sat on them, then staged this raid where they acted as if they didn't know us."
- Matthew Henderson, regional director of the Association of Community Organizations for Reform Now (ACORN), on a raid state authorities performed on the group's state office as part of a probe into allegations the group was involved in fraudulent voter registration.
