Army veteran Sam Brown clinched the Republican nomination for Senate in Nevada Tuesday, NBC News projects, setting up a face-off with Democratic Sen. Jacky Rosen in what’s expected to be one of the most competitive Senate races in the nation this year. Republicans have viewed Nevada, where former President Donald Trump has consistently out-performed President Joe Biden in polling, as a prime pick-up opportunity in their quest to win control of the Senate.
Brown was criticized at one point for not taking part in a primary debate. At the time, the campaign said that was a reflection of their comfortable position in the race. Democrats had also viewed Brown as the GOP frontrunner, frequently targeting him in their messaging, including on abortion. Democrats cast Brown, who has described himself as personally “pro-life,” as a threat to reproductive rights.
