Jindal making events in Las Vegas, Colorado

Gov. Bobby Jindal flew to Las Vegas on Wednesday to attend political events for U.S. Sen. Dean Heller, R-Nev.

From Nevada, Jindal later planned to travel to Denver for an event and a speaking engagement before returning to Baton Rouge on Thursday, the governor’s press office said.

Heller is seeking to hold onto the seat he received through political appointment.

In Colorado, Jindal will help U.S. Rep. Mike Coffman and speak at the Conservative Political Action Conference.

Coffman, a Republican, represents a district dramatically changed by redistricting.
