Don Bacon has to go.
Since 2017, Don Bacon has stood proudly against accountability and equality. For four and a half years, Nebraska’s 2nd District has been represented by a man who cares more about pleasing his party leadership than the hard-working Nebraskans who elected him.
And Nebraskans have noticed.
Bacon has struggled to win over a majority of voters since his first race. The district is listed as a toss up. And in 2022, we are going to flip that Bacon.
