Republican Jim Marchant, a vocal supporter of former president Donald Trump and an election denier who lost a race to become Nevada’s secretary of state last year, has launched a bid for the U.S. Senate.
Marchant is seeking to topple Sen. Jacky Rosen , a moderate serving her first term in the swing state. Marchant, who describes himself as a “MAGA conservative” — a reference to Trump’s “Make America Great Again” slogan — is the first major Republican to enter the race.
“There’s nothing more precious than our freedom and personal liberty,” Marchant said during an event Tuesday at a suburban Las Vegas church. “I’m running for United States Senate to protect Nevadans from the overbearing government, from Silicon Valley, from big media, from labor unions, from the radical gender-change advocates, where Jacky Rosen has failed you.
Marchant, a former one-term State Assembly member, also lost a bid for U.S. Congress three years ago, then unsuccessfully tried to overturn the results in a lawsuit. He drew Trump’s endorsement in his race for secretary of state last year as he falsely contended that the 2020 presidential election was rife with fraud and stolen from Trump.
