MORE: South Carolina, Nevada, North Dakota primaries and Ohio special election 2024: Nancy Mace, Sam Brown win Republican senatorial candidate Sam Brown speaks at an election night party, June 11, 2024, in Reno, Nev., Brown's win was fueled by his campaign highlighting his personal story of recovery from a roadside bomb attack in Afghanistan, an explosion that forced him to undergo 30 surgeries and left him permanently scarred.
On top of that, Brown inherits what Republicans estimate to be a favorable political environment for his run. Brown has touted the need to alleviate economic pressures on families and clamp down on undocumented border crossings -- messages operatives chalked up to a national playbook rather than the specifics that Nevadans might care about in the voting booth this year.
He also says on his website he "will oppose any bill that pushes for federal funding of abortion, late term abortions, or abortion without parental notification."
