Nevada's Senate race has been dramatically closer since September. According to the Rasmussen Report/American Thinker poll, U.S. Army Capt. Sam Brown (R) is surging in the homestretch.
In a survey of 748 likely Nevada voters, published On Saturday, Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-Nev.) narrowly defeated Brown, 47 percent to 44 percent, marking the biggest change since September.
Rosen has lost three support points since September, while Brown has jumped four points, resulting in a seven-point swing in one month. A September Rasmussen poll showed Rosen leading 50% to 40%.
Among men, Brown has a slight advantage at 47 to 45 percent, while women prefer Rosen at 49 to 42 percent.
The poll was conducted from October 9th to 14th, a few days before Thursday's solo debate. Brown had a number of solid moments, including criticizing Rosen for failing to protect women's sports. This debate could further influence the contours of the race, a trend worth keeping an eye on in future polls.
The Rasmussen Report also assessed the presidential election situation in the Silver State. Former President Donald Trump, who supports Brown, has a two-point lead over Vice President Kamala Harris, 49% to 47%. 4% are undecided or plan to vote for a third-party candidate.
Harris' approval rating has fallen by 1% since September, but Trump's approval rating has remained unchanged.

Additionally, Trump won nearly a third of black voters and exactly half of other minority voters.
The survey has a margin of error of plus or minus 3 percentage points.
