Election denier on slate of false pro-Trump electors
Republican Jim Marchant, a vocal election denier who lost his race to be Nevada's top election official in 2022, is running for Senate against incumbent Democrat Sen. Jacky Rosen.Marchant was one of many 2020 Republican candidates for secretary of
state who promoted unfounded claims of fraud in the 2020 presidential election. He was part of Nevada's alternate slate of false, pro-Trump electors who challenged results of the election. Marchant has said he wouldn't have certified President Joe
Biden's victory.
"I am running for United States Senate to protect Nevadans from overbearing government, from Silicon Valley, from big media, from labor unions, from radical gender exchange advocates, where Jacky Rosen has failed you," Marchant said.
He claimed American liberties are under siege because of illegal immigrants and leftist policies. And he said freedom of speech and the right to bear arms are being taken away by the government and powerful corporations.

On Immigration:
The border, both North and South, needs to be shut down
America welcomes immigrants. However, it must be done legally, and the numbers need to be controlled. Currently, the border, both North and South, needs to be shut down, illegal aliens need to be deported, and we need to permanently secure this nation.
WE DO NOT NEED ANYMORE BORDER POLICIES. We only need to enforce the laws we have had on the books for decades, which worked adequately until Joe Biden became president.
