内布拉斯加州无党派联邦参议院候选人丹·奥斯本于9月1日在格兰德艾兰的内布拉斯加州博览会上与联邦参议员皮特·里基茨进行辩论。
内布拉斯加州联邦参议院独立候选人丹·奥斯本周三似乎证实了一段泄露录音的真实性，录音中他被指批评支持唐纳德·特朗普总统的选民。
“内布拉斯加州雷德克劳普的那个比利·鲍勃，就住在进城就能看到的该死的特朗普商店隔壁，还挥舞着特朗普旗帜……他满脑子只想自己站在赢的一方，”一段被《奥马哈世界先驱报》获取的音频中，一名发言者说道，“他被忽悠得团团转，比利·鲍勃和他妻子玛丽·简或者玛丽·乔，对方跟他们说，看啊，我们赢了，你们站在赢的一方。这就是他们在乎的全部，因为他们的生活可能糟透了，真的糟透了。”
当美国有线电视新闻网记者达纳·巴什在《内幕政治》节目中询问他是否是那段发言者时，奥斯本回答：“听起来确实像我。”
“我不记得这段具体对话的背景，但这确实听起来不像我平时的作风，”他说道，并补充道，“我会为可能因此被冒犯的人道歉，但我得告诉他们，我能感受到他们的痛苦。我完全能感同身受。我们现在都很愤怒，有时候人在愤怒的时候会说出一些不该说的话。”

作为在深红州内布拉斯加州参选的独立候选人，奥斯本正在挑战共和党籍参议员皮特·里基茨。民主党领导人决定放弃提名本党候选人，转而支持奥斯本，让选票上不出现民主党人选，以期在这个2024年特朗普以约20个百分点优势胜出的州击败现任议员。
作为海军退伍军人和前工会领袖，奥斯本以民粹主义、工人阶级纲领参选，既支持劳工权益和部分堕胎权，也拥护持枪权和更严格的移民执法政策。
奥斯本为自己面向全州选民的拉票活动辩护，包括那些支持特朗普的选民。他告诉CNN，距离选举日不到两个月的时间里，他已经走访了55个县。

“我和很多特朗普支持者交谈过……我想说的是，人们都很愤怒，人们都被剥夺了选举权，尤其是那些人，而这正是特朗普在内布拉斯加州抓住的点。他抓住了那些对政治体制感到愤怒的人，特朗普以局外人的身份突破了这一点，”他说道，“这就是人们喜欢特朗普的原因。这也是我作为独立候选人跳出政党体系参选的原因，因为我厌倦了两党之间的恶性循环。”
尽管奥斯本曾表示，如果当选不会与任何党派结盟，但民主党人认为，一名统一的挑战者可能会让这个席位变得有竞争力，因为民主党正努力打破共和党在参议院的微弱多数优势。
2024年，奥斯本以独立候选人身份参选，与共和党籍参议员黛比·费舍尔的竞争结果比预期更接近。此后，民主党领导人便开始为奥斯本扫清初选障碍。
两年后的今天，奥斯本希望借助选民对左右两派的不满以及自伊朗战争爆发以来愈发严重的生活成本问题获益。
“这就是人们愤怒的原因。这也是我愤怒的原因。我想任何听到这段话并且了解我的人都明白，这就是这段话的出发点，”他周三在接受巴什采访时说道。

Nebraska independent Senate candidate Dan Osborn on Wednesday appeared to confirm the authenticity of a leaked recording in which he is purported to criticize voters who support President Donald Trump.
“Billy Bob in fking Red Cloud, Nebraska, who lives next door to the fking Trump store as you pull into town and is waving the Trump flag … all he knows is he’s like on the winning team,” a speaker said in audio obtained by the Omaha World-Herald. “He’s been so effective at taking Billy Bob and his wife Mary Jane or Mary Jo and telling them, look we’re winning. You’re on the winning team. And that’s all they care about, because their lives probably suck so f**king.”
Asked by CNN’s Dana Bash on “Inside Politics” if he was the speaker, Osborn replied, “It sure sounds like me.”
“I don’t remember the context of this one particular conversation, but it certainly does sound out of character for myself,” he said, adding, “I would apologize to those people that might be offended, but I gotta tell them, I feel their pain. I absolutely feel their pain. We’re all angry right now and sometimes when you’re angry you say some things.”

Osborn, running as an independent in ruby red Nebraska, is challenging Republican Sen. Pete Ricketts. Democratic party leaders decided to stand down and support Osborn, leaving no Democrat on the ballot, in hopes of ousting the incumbent in a state Trump carried by roughly 20 points in 2024.
A Navy veteran and former union leader, Osborn is running on a populist, working-class message, blending support for labor and some abortion rights with backing for gun rights and tougher immigration enforcement.
Osborn defended his outreach to voters across the state, including those who support Trump. He told CNN he’s visited 55 counties on his tour with less than two months until Election Day.

“I talked to a lot of Trump voters and … I’m talking about people are pissed off, people are disenfranchised, especially, and that’s what Trump captured in Nebraska. He captured people who are angry about the political system and Trump ran outside of that as an outsider,” he said. That’s what people like about Trump. It’s why I’m running again as an independent running outside the political system, because I’m tired of the two-party doom loop.”
While Osborn has said he will not caucus with either party if elected, Democrats believe a unified challenger could put the seat in play, as their party fights to break Republicans’ narrow Senate majority.
Party leaders sought to clear the primary field for Osborn after his surprisingly competitive performance in 2024, when, running as an independent, he lost a closer-than-expected race to Republican Sen. Deb Fischer.
Two years later, Osborn is hoping to capitalize on voter frustration with both the right and the left and cost of living concerns that have only grown since the start of the Iran war.
“That’s why people are angry. That’s why I’m angry. And I think you know anybody who hears this and knows me understands that’s where it’s coming from,” he told Bash on Wednesday.
