The 2024 United States Senate election in Nebraska will be held on November 5, 2024, to elect a member of the
United States Senate to represent the
state of Nebraska.[1] Since there will also be
special election in Nebraska for the U.S. Senate this marks the first time since
1954 and the second time since
1952 where both of Nebraska's U.S. Senate seats were concurrently for election. Primary elections will take place on May 14, 2024.[2]
Incumbent
Republican Senator
Deb Fischer was first elected in
2012 to fill the seat of retiring Democrat
Ben Nelson and was re-elected in
2018. Fischer will seek a third term, despite having previously pledged to retire.[3]
Dan Osborn, an industrial mechanic and union leader who led the
strike at Kellogg's Omaha plant in 2021, is running as an independent. No Democrats filed to run for the seat, creating speculation that Democrats may support Osborn in the general election.[4]
