Question: Patrick Anthony McCarran, was a Democratic United States Senator from Nevada from 1933 until 1954, Nevada became the 36th state, on which date?
Context: Harold Everett Hughes (February 10, 1922 – October 23, 1996) was the 36th Governor of Iowa from 1963 until 1969; he had been a Republican earlier in his life.  He also served as a Democratic United States Senator from 1969 until 1975. USS "Nevada" (BB-36), the second United States Navy ship to be named after the 36th state, was the lead ship of the two "Nevada"-class battleship s. Launched in 1914, "Nevada" was a leap forward in dreadnought technology; four of her new features would be included on almost every subsequent US battleship: triple gun turrets, oil in place of coal for fuel, geared steam turbines for greater range, and the "all or nothing" armor principle.  These features made "Nevada", alongside its sister ship "Oklahoma" , the first US Navy "super-dreadnoughts". John Albert Carroll (July 30, 1901 – August 31, 1983) was a Democratic United States Representative and United States Senator from Colorado.  Born in Denver, he attended the public schools, and during the First World War served in the United States Army (1918–1919).  He graduated from Westminster Law School in Denver in 1929, and was admitted to the bar the same year and commenced practice in Denver.  In 1933 and 1934, he was assistant United States attorney, and was district attorney of Denver from 1937 to 1941.  He was regional attorney for the Office of Price Administration in 1942 and 1943, and served in the Second World War as a commissioned officer in the U.S. Army from 1943 to 1945.  He resumed the practice of law, and was elected as a Democratic representative to the Eightieth and Eighty-first Congresses (January 3, 1947 to January 3, 1951). Patrick is an unincorporated community in Storey County which was the site of a historic ranch.  The founder of the ranch, Patrick McCarran, arrived in Nevada in 1858 as a member of the United States Army under General Winfield Scott Hancock.  In 1862 McCarran claimed 2600 acre of land that would become McCarran Ranch and the unincorporated community of Patrick.  Patrick's son, Pat McCarran, became Nevada's first native born U.S. Senator and a staunch anti communist.  Patrick Nevada is also the owner of four of the cattle in the ranch. USS "Nevada" (SSBN-733) is a United States Navy "Ohio"-class ballistic missile submarine that has been in commission since 1986.  She is the fourth ship of the U.S. Navy to be named for Nevada, the 36th state. The Great Seal of the State of Nevada is derived from the Seal of the Territory of Nevada.  As Nevada prepared for statehood in 1864, its Constitutional Convention began to formalize the features of the state's official seel.  Nevada was admitted as a state on October 31, 1864 by proclamation of President Abraham Lincoln.  On February 24, 1866, the motto "Volens et Potens" ("Willing and Able") was replaced by "All for Our Country".  The design of the seal was formalized, and Nevada's mineral resources are featured with a silver miner and his team moving a carload of ore from a mountain in the foreground.  A quartz mill stands before another mountain.  Transportation and communication are symbolized by a train steaming across the background, with telegraph poles spanning the distance.  Agriculture is represented by a sheaf of wheat, a sickle, and a plow in the foreground.  Nevada's natural environment is symbolized by a brilliant sun rising over snow-capped peaks.  The inner circle of the seal carries the motto "All for Our Country", and Nevada's entry into the Union as the 36th state is shown with 36 stars completing the inner ring.  The perimeter of the seal proclaims "The Great Seal of the State of Nevada".  Mark Twain was said to have convinced the designer to make the two trails of smoke blow in opposite directions as a prank, which was later rectified when the mistake was realized. Ernest Frederick "Fritz" Hollings (born January 1, 1922) served as a Democratic United States Senator from South Carolina from 1966 to 2005.  He was also the 106th Governor of South Carolina and the 77th Lieutenant Governor of South Carolina.  He served alongside Republican Senator Strom Thurmond for 36 years, making them the longest-serving Senate duo in history.  At the age of 95 , he is currently the oldest living U.S. Senator. Joel Bennett Clark (January 8, 1890July 13, 1954), better known as Bennett Champ Clark, was a Democratic United States Senator from Missouri from 1933 until 1945, and was later a United States federal judge. Patrick Anthony McCarran (August 8, 1876 – September 28, 1954) was a Democratic United States Senator from Nevada from 1933 until 1954.  McCarran was born in Reno, Nevada, attended the Nevada State University, and was a farmer and rancher.  In 1902 he won election to the Nevada Assembly, but in 1904 he was an unsuccessful candidate for the Nevada State Senate.  He completed private law studies and was admitted to the bar in 1905; in 1906 he won election as Nye County's district attorney.  He served a two-year term, after which he relocated to Reno. Nevada became the 36th state on October 31, 1864, after telegraphing the Constitution of Nevada to the Congress days before the November 8 presidential election (the largest and costliest transmission ever by telegraph).  Statehood was rushed to help ensure three electoral votes for Abraham Lincoln's reelection and add to the Republican congressional majorities.
