“Nebraska voters may see a repeat matchup on the 2024 ballot in the state’s most competitive congressional district,” the Omaha World Herald reports.
“State Sen. Tony Vargas of Omaha, a Democrat, announced Wednesday that he will challenge Rep. Don Bacon again for his seat serving Nebraska’s 2nd Congressional District. In 2022, Bacon defeated Vargas in his third re-election bid by a close margin of less than 3 percentage points.”
