Overview
Republican Sen. Deb Fischer has won reelection in Nebraska, defeating independent candidate Dan Osborn in a closely watched and competitive race. Despite being outspent and facing a strong challenge, Fischer, first elected in 2012, secured her third term in the Senate. Osborn, a union leader and populist candidate, managed to narrow the contest, highlighting issues like union rights and marijuana legalization. His campaign was marked by a lack of support from the Democratic Party, and he emphasized his independence from traditional party affiliations. Fischer's win prevents potential threats to GOP Senate control as they prepare for the 2025 elections.
