Nevada Day Parade in Carson City joined by political hopefuls

CARSON CITY — Senate candidate Sharron Angle served pancakes at a Republican breakfast and then smiled broadly, waved and shook hands with well-wishers Saturday as she walked the two-mile Nevada Day Parade route not once, but twice.
Meanwhile, her opponent, U.S. Sen. Harry Reid, D-Nev., greeted spectators and participants before the parade began, and then watched from a seat along the parade route. His aides said Reid was advised not to walk or ride a car in the parade because of security concerns.
