Democratic Sen. Jacky Rosen of Nevada announced a major investment in her reelection bid on Thursday. Her campaign is placing a $14 million ad reservation in Nevada, a battleground state that could not only determine the balance of power in the Senate, but also the presidential election.
Rosen's ad reservation is the largest in the state's history for a Senate race, the campaign says, and will run from late July through Election Day in the Las Vegas and Reno media markets.
