I think we should only name airports after deceased people.
Oh, you say we already paid for the sign...

McCarran, a Democrat, was the author of the 1938 Civil Aeronautics Act, which established the federal government’s role in overseeing aviation by regulating airline fares and investigating accidents.IOW, McCarran actually had something to do with developing the commercial aviation industry albeit not as much as Howard Hughes, another famous Nevada resident.
Reid's major historical accomplishment was blowing up the filibuster rule.

The nice thing about the old name was that I never knew anything about McCarran.

He did one thing good. He took away the filibuster on judges which helped trump greatly.

“ya renaming the airport for reid would be a real black eye for the state.”
He brought a lot of money and good things to the state. That’s what the state’s citizens see.

Then, logically, I shall henceforth call it “Mashed Potatoes Airport”.

Just shows you the Mob is still in charge of Vegas. They like to reward those that do them favors.
