A spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said Monday the Nevada Democrat has tried to help MGM Mirage raise some of the USD 1.2 billion needed to complete the USD 9.1 CityCenter development. On Sunday, the Review-Journal reported in the Inside Gaming column that Reid and MGM Mirage majority shareholder Kirk Kerkorian were calling financial institutions to seek the final piece of the CityCenter financing puzzle. The information came from a Wall Street analyst.
