Nebraska Senate Race Tightens

“The fight for control of the U.S. Senate has expanded to an unexpected place: the deeply conservative farm state of Nebraska, thanks to the rising appeal of an independent candidate who says he wants nothing to do with either party,” Bloomberg reports.

“The Plains state is one of several GOP strongholds in the region, including neighboring Iowa and Kansas, where polls show Republican candidates in surprisingly tight races, as President Donald Trump’s approval rating slides in places he won easily just two years ago.”

“With razor thin party margins, any race could be the one that decides who dictates the agenda in the Senate.”
