Lindsey Graham pressed Trump during a hearing to stop Iran talks, while Nebraska’s Senate race shifted as a former Democrat entered the GOP primary fight.
But then 79-year-old pastor William Forbes entered the race.. While Forbes is a registered Democrat, he’s voted for Trump three times and attended a Republican training event earlier this year.. Nebraska Democrats were understandably worried, so now retired pharmacy tech Cindy Burbank is running against Forbes.. Burbank said that if she wins the primary, she’ll drop out and endorse Osborn so he has a clear field to take on incumbent Republican Senator Pete Ricketts, whose family is worth billions.. Not surprisingly, Republicans are crying foul, calling Burbank’s candidacy a coordinated and unfair means to prop up Osborn.. Republican Secretary of State Bob Evnen tried to kick Burbank off the ballot in March, but she successfully sued to stay on.. Burbank also paid the filing fee for a third-party candidate, Mike Marvin, of the Legal Marijuana NOW Party.
