This race is expected to be competitive and could determine party control of the U.S. Senate, and is widely seen as the most likely Republican pickup opportunity. Incumbent Democrat Catherine Cortez Masto was first elected in 2016 with 47.1% of the vote, holding a seat left open by former Senate Minority Leader Harry Reid. She has stated she will run for a second term. Former Nevada Attorney General Adam Laxalt is the Republican challenger.
