The Republican Party is in total turmoil after incumbent Democratic United States Senator Catherine Cortez Masto was reelected to a second term by Nevada voters late Saturday night.
News outlets including Fox called the race for Cortez Masto over GOP challenger Adam Laxalt – who had the backing of former President Donald Trump – after a final batch of ballots from Clark County gave Cortez Masto the lead. The Associated Press noted that Cortez Masto's advantage would hold even if "Laxalt made gains in rural Nevada counties that are still counting votes."
