John,

Wow! What a week it’s been.

I’ve been making a state-wide campaign tour, and people across Nebraska are fired up about our campaign to defeat Republican Deb Fischer and win this Senate seat.

[link removed] [[link removed]]From restaurants and bars to union halls, I’m not afraid to answer the tough questions. And unlike my Republican opponent, I am actually showing up and holding public events for voters…

[link removed] [[link removed]] [link removed] [[link removed]]The Lincoln Journal Star covered one of our town halls this week, and they wrote up a great story about it [[link removed]] .

If you don’t have the time to read the entire thing, here’s the gist:

U.S. Senate candidate Dan Osborn leaned into his blue-collar roots and railed against the "country club" congressional chamber he is hoping to infiltrate as he tried to appeal to working class voters in his first town hall event in Lincoln on Tuesday.

Osborn, a U.S. Navy veteran and former union president who led a 77-day strike at Kellogg’s in 2021, recounted his nearly unintentional rise to union leadership and drew stark contrasts between himself and Sen. Deb Fischer, the Republican incumbent he is aiming to unseat, in front of a crowd of around 50 attendees crowded into a cozy union hall Tuesday evening north Lincoln.

"There is no one like me in the U.S. Senate," Osborn said at Tuesday's town hall, which featured refreshments that included free beer and potato chips and a Senate candidate who was both plainspoken and polite, dismissing falsehoods peddled by attendees and, at one point, thanking a man who got up to leave the event 20 minutes early.

For close to an hour, as he fielded questions on topics ranging from the state of abortion access in Nebraska to the state of Russia's war in Ukraine, Osborn often sought middle ground as he cast his candidacy as one meant to disrupt the status quo that, he said, has bogged down the process in Washington.

"We are not near as divided as the media wants us," Osborn said, as cheers and applause filled the Lincoln Labor Temple. "I would say 95% of the stuff, we all agree on, whether I'm at a bar in Pickrell, Nebraska, or we're here in Lincoln.

"People understand we need a change. And I think people are ready for a change."Our campaign has already raised over $1 million – a record-breaking amount – and the polls show me neck-and-neck with my opponent Republican Deb Fischer. One poll even shows me leading by 2 points! But Deb Fischer still has millions more in her campaign coffers thanks to corporate PACs.

We are going to win this Senate seat in November. I can feel it. It’s going to be one of the most shocking races on Election Night, and one of the biggest wins for working people like me in a generation.

I am so grateful you’re on this journey with me.

Dan Osborn
