2018 US Midterm Election Tuesday Nov 06,2018 - Brothel owner Dennis Hof wins Nevada legislative race despite being dead

Nevada brothel owner and reality TV star Dennis Hof died last month, but still won a heavily GOP state legislative district after fashioning himself as a Donald Trump-style Republican candidate.

County officials will appoint a Republican to take Hof’s place in the state Assembly. He was found dead October 16 after a weekend of parties celebrating his 72nd birthday. Officials are still determining his cause of death, but they don’t suspect foul play.

He beat Democratic educator Lesia Romanov for Nevada’s 36th Assembly District, which includes rural communities and large stretches of desert in the southern part of the state.

Hof owned a handful of brothels in Nevada, the only state that allows them to legally operate. He starred in the HBO adult reality series “Cathouse” and wrote a book titled “The Art of the Pimp,” akin to Trump’s book “The Art of the Deal.”
