Jon Ralston predicts Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto (D-NV) will hang on to win re-election.
“Red wave or not, candidates and campaigns matter. Adam Laxalt is an abysmal candidate who has lived on his last name for credibility and fundraising since he moved here a decade ago. Anyone with an R after his or her name would be competitive this cycle, and his automaton-like performance, where he can disgorge puerile talking points to thrill the faithful and avoid any serious questioning (a candidate for governor and Senate who never debated!) has been something to behold.”
However, Ralston is not so sure about Gov. Steve Sisolak (D) and thinks challenger Joe Lombardo (R) can pull out a narrow victory.
