RENO, Nev. (AP) — Retired Army Capt. Sam Brown has overcame a crowded primary field in Nevada’s Republican U.S. Senate primary. His victory sets up a fierce battle against Democratic Sen. Jacky Rosen in November that could decide control of the U.S. Senate. Brown was recruited by national Republicans who have been deliberate in their attempt to avoid a repeat of their lackluster showing in the 2022 midterms. All but cementing Brown’s victory was the endorsement from Donald Trump on Sunday, which came as a blow to his opponents who had angled to align themselves with the former president.
