(Joe) Dini, Jr. (March 28, 1929 – April 10, 2014) was a Nevada state assemblyman and casino owner from Yerington, Nevada.[1] In 1996 Dini was ranked the tenth most influential Nevadan in a survey conducted by the Las Vegas Sun, a list that included Steve Wynn, Bill Raggio, then Governor Bob Miller and former Governor Mike O'Callaghan.[1] Political careerDini was elected to the Nevada State Assembly for the 38th district (which includes Lyon County, Storey Countey and parts of Carson City) in 1967 and served until 2001 in four special sessions and eighteen regular sessions, making him the longest serving assemblyman in Nevada history.[2] He served as the Speaker of the Assembly for eight sessions at various times between 1977 and 1999, the most sessions in Nevada Assembly history.[3] At one point later in his political career he considered running for Governor of the State of Nevada, but did not.[4] Dini also served as Majority Floor Leader in 1975. He was added to the Assembly Wall of Distinction (established by the Assembly of the Legislature of the State of Nevada to recognize members who have served with great distinction and made exemplary contributions to the State of Nevada) in recognition of his many years of service in the State Assembly and as Speaker of the Assembly.[5] He died at a hospital in Reno, Nevada on April 10, 2014.[6][7] Dini's Lucky Club{{main|Dini's Lucky Club}}In 1960 Joe Dini, Jr. purchased Dini's Lucky Club (one of two casinos in Yerington, Nevada) from his father Giuseppe "Joe" Dini, Sr., who had opened the now self-proclaimed "oldest family owned casino in Nevada" in 1933 under the name the Wooden Shoe Club.[8] The casino has been owned by his sons George and Jay since 2007 with Joe Dini sitting as "chairman emeritus".[9] References1. ^1 {{Cite news | last = Henry | first = Larry | last2 = German | first2 = Jeff | title = Old power meets new power in Nevada politics | newspaper = Las Vegas Sun | pages = | date = June 15, 1996 | url = http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/1996/jun/15/old-power-meets-new-power-in-nevada-politics/}} {{DEFAULTSORT:Dini, Joe}}2. ^{{cite web|publisher=Nevada Legislature|title=Legislative Biography -- 71st (2001) Session|url=http://www.leg.state.nv.us/71st/Legislators/Assembly/DiniJr.cfm|accessdate=February 9, 2009}} 3. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.leg.state.nv.us/Assembly/Speakers%20of%20the%20Nevada%20Assembly%20(1864-2007).pdf|title=Speakers of the Nevada Assembly 1864 through 2007|format=PDF|accessdate=February 9, 2009}}. 4. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.lasvegassun.com/news/1998/aug/28/assembly-speaker-recovering/|accessdate=February 9, 2009|title=Assembly speaker recovering}} 5. ^{{cite web|url=https://www.leg.state.nv.us/73rd/bills/AR/AR7_EN.pdf|format=PDF|accessdate=February 9, 2009|title=Assembly Resolution No. 7–Assemblymen}} 6. ^Joe Dini, longtime Nevada Assembly Speaker, dies at age 85 7. ^http://www.rgj.com/story/news/2014/04/15/pack-gym-remember-nevadas-joe-dini/7753737/ 8. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.dinisluckyclub.net/|title=Dini's Lucky Club|accessdate=February 9, 2009}} 9. ^{{cite web|title=Former state lawmaker Dini gains position|url=http://www.lvrj.com/business/9351571.html%7C|accessdate=February 9, 2009}} 10 : 1929 births|2014 deaths|People from Yerington, Nevada|University of Nevada, Reno alumni|Nevada Democrats|Members of the Nevada Assembly|Businesspeople from Nevada|Businesspeople in the casino industry|Deaths from diabetes|Speakers of the Nevada Assembly |
