Republicans to “whack the donkey”

Nevada’s newly-created Hispanic Republican Assembly is hosting a bangin’
event tonight (Wednesday Jan. 9) at Ricardo’s Mexican restaurant, 4930 W. Flamingo Road, that is unlikely to be
repeated this political season: a “whack the donkey” pinata pre-caucus
mixer.

Sen. John Ensign and Gov. Jim Gibbons are listed as “honorary guests.” No word on whether that entitles them to honorary first whacks.

The 5:30-7:30 p.m. event costs $20 per person.
