Nevada congressman hospitalized after heart attack by on Aug 30, 2016, 12:44 AM CARSON CITY, Nev. (AP) — A spokesman says U.S. Rep. Cresent Hardy of Nevada is recovering after suffering a heart attack. Larry Farnsworth says the Republican underwent a routine medical procedure after the Monday night incident and remains hospitalized. Farnsworth says in a news release that Hardy is expected to return to a full schedule later this week. The 59-year-old Hardy is running for re-election in Nevada's 4th Congressional District, which covers much of southern Nevada, including parts of Las Vegas. His opponent is Democratic state Sen. Ruben Kihuen, who emerged with a solid primary victory and has support from the powerful Culinary Union. Hardy rose from roots in ranching and the construction industry and his allies hope his work ethic and down-to-earth style can pull him through a tough campaign.
