Dead brothel owner posthumously wins election

Nevada Republican brothel owner Dennis Hof won election in Nevada's 36th Assembly District Tuesday night. However, the election result came one day after the Republican's funeral.

Hof, who owned several brothels in the state, passed away in mid-October after spending a weekend partying and celebrating his 72nd birthday.

According to the Associated Press, state law allows county officials to appoint a Republican to take Hof's place in the Nevada Assembly.

Playing off of the title of the Donald Trump's book Art of the Deal, Hof wrote the 2015 book The Art of the Pimp. Hof considered himself to be the "Trump of Pahrump."
