In 2022, Senator Jacky Rosen of Nevada faced a tough battle for re-election against Republican opponent Sam Brown. Rosen, using her financial advantage, launched a campaign early on, painting Brown as an extremist on abortion and Social Security cuts. Polling averages show Rosen with a nine-point lead over Brown leading up to their first and only televised debate.
As Brown struggles to gain ground, Republicans are looking to him to forcefully distinguish himself from Rosen and blame her for Nevada’s sluggish economic recovery. However, some Nevada Republicans are privately expressing doubts about Brown’s chances, pointing to missteps in his campaign that have allowed Rosen to solidify her lead.
Despite the slim possibility of an upset, with the race looking highly unlikely to swing in Brown’s favor. According to Nevada political commentator Jon Ralston, the national and local Republicans are aware of the challenges facing Brown’s campaign.
Overall, the 2022 Senate race in Nevada is shaping up to be a tough battle for Brown, as Rosen continues to maintain a significant lead in the polls. With just days before the election, the pressure is on for Brown to make a compelling case for himself in the upcoming debate.
