We were just talking about Pete Domeneci having impregnated the daughter of his fellow Senator Paul Laxalt back in the late 1970s or early 1980s (”more than 30 years ago”). Here’s an article on Domeneci’s acknowledgment of the affair and his paternity:

Please note this line from the article: “Statements given to the Journal by Domenici and the son’s mother, Michelle Laxalt of Alexandria, Va., identified the son as Adam Paul Laxalt, a Nevada lawyer.”
Well, a grandchild of Senator Paul Laxalt is running for Attorney General of Nevada. His name? Adam Paul Laxalt: http://www.adamlaxaltforag.com/about
Either this is one huge coincidence, or our likely NV AG nominee (he’s the only Republican who has announced so far, and the filing deadline is March 14) has excellent political genes.
I saw that Laxalt’s grandson was listed running for AG on poltics1.
I didn’t make the connection with this though! Politics1 doesn’t mention that he’s the son of Domeneci!
