Nebraska Senate winner?

Dan Osborn's campaign paid his wife, Megan, $61,994.28 over the most recent year reported. The company he disclosed she has been a 1/3rd owner of, Independent Campaigns LLC, has been paid by his campaign and other parts of Daniel Moraff's project $222,698.98.

Pete Ricketts is going to protect and vote with trump at every turn because he is 1. A POS and 2. He is likely protecting his dad who raped kids on Epstein Island. Remember when trump threatened his family in public posts? I do.

NEW: Nebraska's Democratic Senate nominee, Cindy Burbank, has filed to withdraw from the general election. She's hoping to help independent @osbornforne.bsky.social oust Sen. Pete Ricketts, the GOP incumbent. Republican state officials may not let her. #NESEN www.nytimes.com/2026/07/18/u...

"As part of the fallout from Graham Platner, conservative media and Republicans have been trying to tie Independent Nebraska Senate candidate Dan Osborn to Platner. But in line with the rather poor media environment these days, they have managed to screw that up."

"While [Daniel] Moraff is reported to have recruited [Dan] Osborn, what exactly happened there doesn’t seem to have been reported at the time and there is still limited detail. [...] He was photographed with Osborn when he turned in his signatures to get on the ballot, which was in August 2024."

Dan Osborn came within 7 points of defeating Deb Fischer in 2024, a red year. If the 2026 environment is blue this race could get very interesting.

As expected, Democrat Cindy Burbank has dropped out of the #NESen race to give Dan Osborn a better chance of defeating GOP Sen. Pete Ricketts. This is the kind of strategic planning I like to see. plains-sentinel.com/p/burbank-an...

No. That's Pete Ricketts

A week apart. Cindy Burbank dropped out one day after Dan Osborn’s signatures were verified to qualify for the November general election.

The Nebraska Senate race, if Burbank is allowed to drop out, still isn't entirely a clean 1v1 between Dan Osborn and Pete Ricketts Marijuana NOW Party’s U.S. Senate nominee Mike Marvin is still in the race + there could be new parties in the state that can add ballot lines to the race

"Cindy Burbank, Nebraska’s Democratic nominee for the U.S. Senate race, submitted paperwork Friday to remove herself from the November ballot, a move that could clear the way for nonpartisan candidate Dan Osborn to challenge incumbent Republican Sen. Pete Ricketts."

This is great news. Although I’d love to see a Democrat win in Nebraska, the state remains quite red. That being said, moderate independent Dan Osborn has launched a serious campaign. If Democrats and enough anti-Trump Republicans rally behind him, we have a real chance to defeat Ricketts.

ETN AMERICA BREAKING: As promised, Democratic nominee in Nebraska Cindy Burbank has withdrawn from the Senate election, allowing Independent Dan Osborn to have a chance against incumbent Pete Ricketts (R).

Check out the highlights from yesterday's press conference on Pete Ricketts ONCE AGAIN trying to buy a Nebraska election with daddy's money.

There are some issues that shouldn't divide us. Holding child predators accountable is one of them. Yet when the opportunity came to support the release of the Epstein files, Pete Ricketts voted the other way.

Nebraska: Nebraska nonpartisan US Senate candidate Dan Osborn qualifies for November ballot #Nebraska #Politics

Held a press conference today to highlight Pete Ricketts and his family once again trying to BUY a Nebraska election. Ricketts is deeply unpopular with little grassroots support, so he leans on checks from daddy instead. He can't win on his ideas, so he resorts to lies and dishonest campaign tricks

Pete Ricketts won his Senate race in 2024 and won by 25 points. Dan Osborn lost in his Senate race in 2024 and lost by 7 points. Ricketts got 148,610 more Nebraska voters to vote for him than Osborn in 2024. But, sure, focus on a race two decades ago instead.

In 2006, Pete spent $12 million of Ricketts family money and still got CRUSHED by 28 points. Twenty years later, he's doing it again. He is scared.

FYI: DEM⬇️ Bernie Sanders, $2-$3M Elizabeth Warren, $7M AOC, $49K (yes, thousand) Tammie Baldwin, $1.1M Tammy Duckworth, $1.2M Dick Durbin, $1.5M Tim Kaine, $1.7M GOP ⬇️ Rick Scott, $320M Pete Ricketts, $206M Jim Justice, $664M MTG, $25M (at retirement; $1M at start.

Nepo baby Pete Ricketts fed his own campaign $5.25 million this quarter. That's 80% of everything he raised. 
 Take away Daddy's money and we outraised him nearly 2 to 1.

Pete Ricketts “career” was built on handouts from his daddy. Pete never built anything himself. Pete was gifted a job at TD Ameritrade. Pete was gifted a piece of the Chicago Cubs.

It’s been 447 days since Pete Ricketts’s last town hall.

Quick look at Nebraska Senate 2Q fundraising reports: Dan Osborn: $1,895,635 Pete Ricketts: $6,366,857 Osborn COH: $2,421,487 Ricketts COH: $6,910,969

From February 2024: "Early in Israel’s war in Gaza, campaign advisers told [Dan Osborn] to put out a statement staking a position. He refused, saying that it was not an issue he wants associated with his campaign." No mention if the campaign advisers were Moraff and or Katz.

Has anyone asked Dan Osborn at one of these town halls who owns the other 2/3rds of Independent Campaigns LLC that his campaign and super PACs have funneled over $200,000 to. (His wife, whose previous job was managing a sports bar, owns 1/3rd according to his amended financial disclosure.)
