BOULDER CITY, Nev. — The candidates in Nevada’s tight Senate race are making their final pitches to voters and seeking to rally their respective bases now that early voting is well underway.
Republican Adam Laxalt, the former state attorney general seeking to unseat incumbent Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, has been on a bus tour targeting some of the state’s less populous and heavily red areas, where he’s likely to run up margins if voters turn out.
A key part of Laxalt’s message, which focuses on inflation, the border and crime, is the president’s absence from Nevada during the closing stages of the campaign.
