LAS VEGAS-3rd District Congressional candidate Democrat Andrew Martin may end his campaign if Nevada Senate Minority Leader Dina Titus enters the race, his spokesperson said Tuesday.

"If Dina Titus does enter the race, we will definitely have to rethink everything," said Martin spokesperson Vin Gopal. "[Martin] has a lot of respect and deeply admires Dina Titus, so I'm not sure if we will continue the race if she enters."

"She would make a great candidate. She's a very popular person, she would get a lot of financial support and has good name recognition."

Since Robert Daskas' surprise announcement yesterday that he was withdrawing his candidacy, both the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee and the Nevada Democratic Party have put out statements supporting Titus entering the race against Rep. Jon Porter.

Martin, who has been campaigning since last year and has loaned his campaign nearly $300,000, has "reached out" to the DCCC as well as top Nevada Democrats, but has not received their support.

Gopal added that until an announcement from Titus comes, Martin's campaign is "still doing the same thing we do every day. Focusing on running."
