Roberts, a Carson resident of 10 years who will represent District 2, ran unopposed and received 21,497 votes as of Thursday. She told the Appeal she appreciated the trust the community is placing in her to help make the best decisions for their children.
Late Friday night, the national media reported that Democrat Jacky Rosen was going to defeat Sam Brown for the U.S. Senate race. Rosen currently holds a, 18,000 vote lead through Friday night. “Thank you, Nevada! I’m honored and grateful to continue serving as your United States Senator,” Rosen said Friday on the social platform X. Brown, a retired Army captain who moved to Nevada from Texas in 2018, conceded defeat.
