Nevada Republican Senate candidate Sam Brown raised money to “help elect Republicans” but spent most of it paying down debt from his failed previous campaign, records show

Brown formed the Duty First PAC in July 2022, saying the organization would help Republicans take back Congress. A month earlier, Brown lost the Republican Senate primary to Adam Laxalt after raising an impressive $4.4 million for his upstart campaign, but his campaign was left with more than $300,000 in debt. Now Brown is running again in Nevada as a top recruit of Senate Republicans. A former Army captain, Brown made lofty promises when launching his PAC, Duty First.

Despite this, Brown played up his PAC’s donations to candidates in interviews and in posts on social media. “I have pledged to help defeat the Democrats in Nevada,” he added in an email, announcing the launch of the PAC. The PAC’s donations were from grassroots donors, who typically donated $50 or less. Just a day before the 2022 midterm election, Brown announced donations to several candidates running for office in Nevada.
