Independent Back as Democrats' Trojan Horse in Neb. Senate Race

Independent Back as Democrats’ Trojan Horse in Neb. Senate Race

For the second time, an independent candidate with ties to Democrats has entered the U.S. Senate race in Nebraska.

Dan Osborn — Navy veteran, mechanic, and former union president — ran as an independent against Republican Sen. Deb Fischer in 2024. With Democrats declining to field a candidate, most of their organization in the Cornhusker State — not to mention their national fundraising operation — weighed in for Osborn.

In the end, Fischer won by 54% to 46%.
