Poll: Laxalt Leads in NV Senate Race against Incumbant Dem Senator

Former Attorney General Adam Laxalt claims that his newfound lead in the Nevada Senate race is due to voters being “fed up with Cortez Masto” amid soaring gas prices, the border crisis and rising crime.
A new CNN poll found that Laxalt, the Trump-backed nominee running in the state’s Senate race, has a two-point edge over Democrat Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, 48% to 46%. Laxalt is also leading among likely independent voters, receiving 47% of the party’s support over Masto, who is gripping onto her seat with 42% support.
Despite trailing among likely votes, Cortez Masto was the more favorable candidate than her GOP opponent, 45% to 39%.
