Mari Nakashima, Heck's spokeswoman, said Heck will vote for Angle.
"Joe Heck has consistently said that he will support the Republican ticket this November and has worked hard to promote Republican candidates at all levels this year from Sharron Angle down to the bottom of the ticket," Nakashima said. "Dr. Heck's point, to an undecided voter in that race, was that everyone should gather all the information they can before making a decision."

Republican Congressional candidate Joe Heck appears to be having second thoughts about his support for Republican U.S. Senate candidate Sharron Angle.
When asked by a Nevada resident whether he plans to vote for Angle or Democratic Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid, Heck was quoted by Slate as saying: "I'm waiting to see all of the evidence before I make my choice."
That's very different from what Heck said before. He previously endorsed Angle.
In a speech at the Nevada Republican Convention, Heck urged Republicans to rally around Angle to “bring a new direction to Washington, D.C.” He called her work in the state Assembly "exemplary."
Heck also noted in a campaign email that "Team Heck is taking a leadership role in uniting the party."
The Heck campaign did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
O what the Heck is going on. You mean you have been duped. LMAO
anyone with half a brain has come out for Harry Reid.
Sharrron Angle IS just too extreme, even for
Right-Wing Extremists!!!
Heck: Just one more Republican who can't remember from day to day what he/she previously said because it all depends on which way the wind is blowing on the day you need to know.
Angle 49% Reid 43%.....she is pulling away!
I guess Heck's spokeswoman is filling out his ballot.. just in case!
GREEDY REPUBLICANS DESTROYED OUR ECONOMY.
We Americans will never forget.
Joe Heck is another greedy republican.
The problem with these greedy republicans is
that they never learn by their mistakes.
Now, with the crazy teabaggers, they got even
WORSE.
VOTE ALL OF THE GREEDY, LYING REPUBLICANS OUT
OF OFFICE.
"Lemons to Lemonade Angle" recently stated that the Muslims had instituted Sharia law in Frankford, TX. Well my friends, Frankford, TX does not even exist anymore.
Frankford was annexed by Dallas, TX in 1975 and all that remains is a church and cemetery.
If she is going to use the dirty tactics of McCarthyism, she should at least be somewhat factual.
A single vote for Angle is a vote against Nevada's future.
Stupid is as stupid does!
Another lie put out by the Sun. Heck was already on record in support of Sharron. Harry's minions just wish it wasn't so. LOL
I am not sure how anyone can vote for Angle on her merits. The hatred for Reid is off the hook and it seems to me that anyone voting for Angle is simply voting against Reid and what he stands for, too much spending, taxation without representation and cronyism.
I personally would love to vote for an intelligent candidate that wants to change government for the better, cut unnecessary spending and reduce my taxes, however Angle does not come off that way. She comes off as a crazy woman that would just cause too much grief and confusion if she was elected.
Although, I am not a huge fan of Reid, I know that he is the Senate majority leader and that does have enough benefit for me to vote for him.
Hopefully when Ensign is up for reelection there will be a better candidate to chose from.
Dina Titus will beat Joe Heck, no problem.
