Nebraska independent Dan Osborn, who waged a competitive bid for Senate in 2024, will challenge Republican Sen. Pete Ricketts next year.

Former independent US Senate candidate Dan Osborn announced Tuesday that he will make another run for office next year, this time against GOP Sen. Pete Ricketts of Nebraska.

Will Coup, a campaign spokesperson for Senator Pete Ricketts, told the Nebraska Examiner: "Senator Ricketts has consistently worked for and voted to secure the border and cut taxes for Nebraska workers, families and seniors. Dan Osborn is bought and paid for by his liberal, out-of-state, coastal donors."
