Cook Political Report: “If Democrats don’t win Nebraska’s 2nd District next year, it’s almost impossible to see them taking control of the House. The Omaha-based district shot to the top of the party’s target list at the beginning of July, when GOP Rep. Don Bacon announced he wouldn’t run for reelection next year.”

“Given the partisan lean of this district — it has a Cook PVI of D+3 — a generic Democrat should have an edge over a generic Republican.”

A new CNN poll in Nebraska’s 2nd congressional district — the so-called “blue dot” encompassing Omaha — finds Kamala Harris with a double-digit lead over Donald Trump, 53% to 42%.

“Former President Donald Trump singled out Rep. Don Bacon (R-NE) on Monday, asking whether any Republican wanted to challenge the three-term incumbent for his Omaha-area House seat next year,” The Hill reports.

A new Greenberg Quinlin Rosner (D) poll in Nebraska’s second congressional district finds Joe Biden leading Donald Trump in the presidential race, 51% to 44%.

In the congressional race, challenger Kara Eastman (D) just beats out Rep. Don Bacon (R) 50% to 49%.

“Kara Eastman (D) — who tried to blaze a new path for Nebraska Democrats but ultimately fell 2 percentage points short on Nov. 6 — announced that she will seek a rematch against Republican Rep. Don Bacon in the Omaha-based 2nd Congressional District,” the Omaha World Herald reports.

“Bacon noted that he has not yet been sworn in to his second term and questioned Eastman’s early announcement.”
