A big feature in The New York Times by Michelle Goldberg is blaring "Republicans assumed a Nebraska Senate seat was safe. Then this candidate came along."

That candidate is Dan Osborn, the economic populist running as an Independent who has unleashed an earthquake in political circles.

In September, Cook Political Report and Sabato’s Crystal Ball, two top political analysts, upgraded the race from Strong Republican to Likely Republican. They just upgraded it again to Leans Republican.

SIX recent polls show this Independent labor leader TIED with MAGA incumbent senator Deb Fischer in this race that could determine the balance of power in the U.S. Senate.

Please donate $4 (or Dan's average donation of $40 if you can) to this SURGING Independent Senate candidate. Donate here to fuel an UPSET that changes history.

Until about a year ago, Dan Osborn was a factory worker. A mechanic and a steamfitter by trade, he led a 77-day strike at the Omaha Kellogg's plant, saving 500 good-paying jobs. Afterwards, he was fired for leading the strike.

Osborn told Goldberg that we’re at the apex of a corporate-run government, and "people’s frustrations inevitably reach a boiling point. So they start electing a different government, a more populist message, because they know that their lives are getting harder and their government is not working for them."

There is no Democrat running for this Senate seat, but this is important from The New York Times:

"Osborn wants to raise both corporate taxes and the minimum wage. Like Biden, he champions the PRO Act, which would make it easier to organize a union. On the stump, he attacks price gouging, an issue Kamala Harris has highlighted.

"He’s personally opposed to abortion, but he believes it should be legal. He’s protective of Second Amendment rights but backs the sort of regulation often supported by urban police forces."

How real is this? Donald Trump just taped a rushed ad for the weak MAGA incumbent and Mitch McConnell just pumped $3 million into a NEBRASKA Senate race!

Can you help make history that could determine the balance of power in the U.S. Senate?

Donate $4 (or Dan's average donation of $40 if you can) to Dan Osborn’s campaign and help fuel a massive UPSET.

Thanks for being a bold progressive.

P.S. Here’s one more thing Dan Osborn told The Times:

"Imagine the ramifications on American politics if Nebraska elects an independent mechanic to the halls of power. It’s going to tell people all around the country that you don’t have to be a self-funding crypto billionaire to run for office. So nurses, teachers, plumbers, carpenters, mechanics, they can all now know that they can do the same thing."
