#NeGov
Dan’s people just text me:

Barely anyone is donating. Dan Osborn trails by 4. And a GOP super PAC is pouring in $1.4M. We need help. Can you give $5? o-4s.com/l/MZX2as #nebraska #neleg #negov
Pete Ricketts is one of Congress's wealthiest members, the son of TD Ameritrade's billionaire founder yet billionaires feel compelled to spend millions protecting him.

Must be nice when democracy comes with a family trust. #Nebraska, Dan Osborn sees the scam.

Republican Governor Jim Pillen has been a champion of Donald Trump’s immigration crackdown. But at least 20 of his family farms employed undocumented immigrants, according to a new investigation by the Flatwater Free Press and The New York Times. youtu.be/5RZgrR1_7Dc?...
This GOP governor said ‘illegal aliens’ have ‘invaded.’ His family farms EMPLOYED them, report finds

Wow.

Just as Dan Osborn is making waves in #NESen with his independent bid, former GOPer Brett Lindstrom is now jumping into the #NEGov race against Republican Jim Pillen.

The Democrat is electoral over-performer Lynne Walz.

This could get very interesting.

More blatant GOP hypocrisy, with Gov. Jim Pillen now caught up in an undocumented worker scandal.

I wondered if #NEGov might pop on the radar, with #NESen also making news and Democratic nominee Lynne Walz having previously won/held a Trump+34 (!) State Senate seat.

How can the rest of us even think about getting ahead when all the tax cuts are focused on the top 1% and large corporations? When the (Not Fiscally Conservative AT ALL) governor out spends the budget we will have to pay for it. #NEleg #NEgov

WTF is this? I take it Nebraska Republicans have given up on policy, and coherent thoughts, and are just stringing together all the triggering buzz words they can come up with.

Guess Walz has got Pillen and the NE GOP running scared.

Gov. Pillen on private talks with Trump: "We don't go out and talk in the public... You don't get things done that way."

Actually, Nebraskans have every right to know what elected officials do on their behalf. You work for the public.

Sleeper, but #NEGov isn’t far behind atp. #FLGov and #SCGov are also increasing interesting to me because of other factors weighing down R’s in both states (the hope Florida scandal in FL and Darline Graham’s very lackluster mistake-laden campaign in SC). Both states also have strong Democratic

#NEGov is easily the governor race I most want a credible pollster to poll. I believe it’s narrowed significantly from when it was last polled earlier this year because of NE being among the hardest hit states by the tariffs and Diesel prices skyrocketing being a heavy farm state (like IA and KS).
