This rare Nebraska district backed Harris but sent a Republican to Congress. Can Democrats win here?
Nebraska's largest city, Omaha, features an open congressional seat contested by Brinker Harding and Denise Powell. This district encompasses both Democratic-leaning areas and more conservative suburbs, making it a key election battleground. While Nebraska has historically supported Republican Donald Trump in state elections, the local race remains uncertain despite efforts from both candidates.
