>> reporter: bill, it's another voter fraud related acorn plea, the former regional director of voter registration in nevada, she's pled to charges related to an illegal voter registration scheme there from the 2008 presidential lks. she has also been a top voting official of project vote, that's the activist group president obama once wrote for, she's pled guilty to two misdemeanor counts in nevada, the charges knocked down from felonies in connection to what prosecutors say was the acorn plan to pay for signing up votes which is illegal in that state. the acorn plan was called blackjack, or 21, quite appropriate for las vegas. court testimony revealed acorn paid voters. edwards copped a plea, he testified against acorn and boshevik, he said that she approved the plan and if acosh workers did not meet the quota, they were fired. acorn las vegas office came under fire for fake registrations, including send -- signing up the starting lineup of the dallas cowboys, for example. acorn itself faces felony criminal charges in las vegas. they've denied the charges and acorn has since filed for chapter seven bankru

why we put the caucus in nevada and put the convention in denver was to try and strengthen democratic prospects in the west. i'll be looking to see how we do in those three regionsnd also how we do among those obama surge voters, the young voters, african-american voters and hispanic voters that really made the difference in the last election. >> woodruff: leslie sanchez, what about the political map for republicans and for democrats? >> certainly. one area completely different, we are focused the midwest. the midwest is critical in determining if there is this resurgence. it's part of our historical context of being competitive in those spaces but particularly the gubernatorial races. in 1978 the g.o.p. had nine governor gains in gubernatorial races. those a lot of those governors set policies in place that were enabling those voters to get excited. it really led to a lot of the 1980 reagan landslide kind of revolution that moved forward. we're trying to see if we can regain that. it was interesting that karen and i agree with her on the west particularly the mountainous west, colorado, that was an area with a lot of environmental policies. the democrats were t
