Nebraska's Swing Seat Heats Up | Lincoln News
About this episode
Nebraska’s 2nd District is heating up as a pivotal swing race: with GOP incumbent Don Bacon out, Democrat Denise Powell—voting mom and grassroots organizer—is pushing for change amid voter fatigue, while Republican Brinker Harding, backed by MAGA-aligned figures like Mike Johnson, frames the contest as “common sense vs. crazy,” accusing Powell of being out of touch. Powell counters by calling Harding extreme, citing his past policies and MAGA ties, positioning herself as a pragmatic centrist focused on affordability and fighting corruption. As ads sharpen their messages and the general election nears, this battleground could tip the balance in the House.
