Did you understand what the lawsuit was about in Nevada?

And speaking of Nevada, I am like Michelle Obama and so many others -- I have always pronounced it incorrectly. Now to the lawsuit:

From The Wall Street Journal:

In Nevada, unions have been battling over their election operations in court. Nevada Democrats had decided this year to hold nine caucuses in casinos on the Las Vegas Strip to make it easier for the Culinary Union's main membership -- casino workers -- to vote. Thousands of cocktail waitresses, bellhops and maids planned to take a few hours off tomorrow for the caucuses, in which supporters of each candidate gather and try to win converts from the rival groups. When the union backed Sen. Obama, the Nevada State Education Association filed suit saying the practice unfairly favors casino workers. [Thursday], a judge allowed the casino caucuses to proceed.
