Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto "very confident" Democrats will "organize our way to victory" in battleground Nevada
Face The Nation - Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto "very confident" Democrats will "organize our way to victory" in battleground Nevada

Two days before Election Day, Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto, a Nevada Democrat, said she's "very confident" Democrats will win in her battleground state.
"I am optimistic that we are going to win, not only for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz, but for Jacky Rosen in this state," she said on "Face the Nation with Margaret Brennan."
Around half of Nevada's active registered voters have cast ballots, with Republicans leading statewide, spurring anxiety among Democrats heading into Election Day. Nevada is also the only state where Republicans flipped the governor's mansion in 2022, although Cortez Masto hung onto her seat by less than 8,000 votes in that same election. But Cortez Masto said she's "optimistic" about Harris' chances in the Silver State, citing what she has seen as an impressive ground game and canvassing efforts from Democrats.
"That's literally what matters here, is making sure that our voters, who are paying attention now in a swing state like Nevada, that somebody is talking to them," Cortez Masto said. "Now is the time for us to connect with our voters and talk to them about the issues that they care about."
