LAS VEGAS (KLAS) — Democratic Sen. Jacky Rosen trailed Republican Sam Brown by less than 1,000 votes as Nevada counties stopped reporting results early Wednesday morning.
As of Wednesday at 3 a.m., Brown led Rosen by 870 votes — or 0.1%.
During speeches Tuesday night, neither Brown nor Rosen claimed victory.
The race echoes the 2022 Senate race between Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto and former attorney general and Republican Adam Laxalt. Laxalt led Cortez Masto in the days after the election, but late-arriving mail-in votes swung the race in Cortez Masto’s favor.
The Associated Press called the 2022 race the Saturday after Election Day. The race received much national attention as the Senate’s control hinged on Cortez Masto. This year, Republicans have already won control of the Senate.
Nevada accepts mail-in ballots postmarked by Election Day to be counted until Nov. 9.
