LAS VEGAS — Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, the first Latina elected to the Senate, will hold onto her seat in Nevada after enduring a bruising campaign against Republican Adam Laxalt, who fell short of ousting the Democrat despite severe midterm headwinds, NBC News projects.
The outcome follows days of protracted mail-in ballot counting, with the results resting largely with the state’s most populous county, Clark County, which posted updates once a day since Tuesday. A race long predicted to be within the margin of error was indeed close through the end.
Latino voters here helped power the results after both candidates invested heavily in courting them. Latinos were expected to make up 1 in 5 midterm voters, but the NBC News Exit Poll in the state suggests those expectations fell short, with Latinos making up just 12 percent of Nevada voters. Last month, both parties saw signs of a disaffected electorate that threatened to stay home.
The NBC News Exit Poll also showed that those who did turn out stood by her. Despite predictions from her opponent that she'd struggle with Latinos, 62 percent said they voted for Cortez Masto and 33 percent backed Laxalt, according to the NBC News Exit Poll.

The fact that so many Americans vote STUPID is what puts the Dumbs within small enough margins so they can CHEAT.
And Pelosi and the “Rats hold the House 226-211
.
And Kari Lake was up by more than 10 points in the late Polls.
Dems will never debate again.
Just have press releases and interviews from the basement.
.
Congratulations to Mitch!
Yep. They won’t let her win in this case, because Hobbs’ arse is on the line. They can’t let her win, no matter what she says about the last batches of votes being mostly GOP.
We have to call out Trump. He's cancer. Time for us to perform surgery. NOW!
They didn’t need to.
He’s unimportant, in the big scheme of federal corruption.
The senate was important.
He’s also corrupt.
He helped cover up the Rte 91 concert shooting.
I am convinced every state is being pushed to election fraud, one party rule. Once a sufficient number of states have been conquered (seems like we are there) federal elections become (are) meaningless. The USA. It was great while it lasted.
Of course. Courtesy of mystery ballots.
> “But if I am correct there is a Republican Jen governor maybe he can do something to cure what ails Nevada!”
Joe Lombardo won the NV governorship
Yes, he can team up with the legislature to dump mail-in voting and the machines that go with it. He can push to impose tight security over voter roll databases, unite county sheriffs in election integrity enforcement, allocate and increase budgets for election fraud investigations and prosecute violators.
I don’t know much how about him, but I know certain counties in NV with sizeable population are 100% fed up with the Democrat crime syndicate fixing elections.
Because they didn't care about that.
The voters in Lost Wages are union stooge idiots.
I am sick of LV running the entire state.
Now they also get help from Washoe/Reno.
Same pattern in both states? They just cut Stacey Abrams lose?
Claims all over the place that vote count release has become selective, driving these media organization “calls”.
Don’t know if this is correct, but it’s being laid out many places with details and reasonable explanations.
Namely, that the last votes to be counted will be those dropped off at ballot boxes on Election Day itself, and that Republicans were urged to do this. The number of total outstanding votes is sufficient that with an X/Y ratio that is not absurd . . . victory can be achieved, and such X/Y ratios are expected and justified.
The strategy of Election Day drop off, and those being last to be counted, is what drives the delays. Those have to be address/name/signature verified before they can be counted. The delay is not in counting. It’s in preparing to count, and it seems reasonably required.
My understanding of the strategy is that if a voter goes in and votes on the machines as is normal, those votes are counted quickly and a slow county/district is provided info as to how many they must fraudulently create. Given the long effort to verify the dropoff ballots, counts can’t be known before the polls close.
So, we wait.
The House looks like it may follow suit of the Senate.
Every race where the Democrats were behind, they’ve managed, after later ballot counting, to overtake the Republican opponent at the wire.
Gee, what are the odds of the “party in power” retaining control of the White House, the Senate and the House of Representatives, in the mid-term election — adding in the current state of the country?
We don’t know how they did it (yet), but they did it. With the way this was pulled off, it has to have been electronically based . . .

There is no excuse for this crap.....and nobody in the State or Federal system with the integrity to address it.
Not a chance. Said it for days before the election. Media will declare Hobbs the winner within hours.
The problem in this, as in every election, is that the ideal candidates aren’t there, and parties have to make do with what they have.
Like somebody said elsewhere on the thread, the federal level is where it’s at. It’s more important to these tyrants.
Lake is an exception, BTW. Hobbs is in charge of the vote there, and she’s also the opponent; she can’t let Lake win.
