华盛顿报道 — 据CBS新闻预测,民主党人丹妮丝·鲍威尔拿下了内布拉斯加州竞争激烈的国会第2选区,该选区目前由即将退休的共和党众议员唐·培根代表。
政治组织者鲍威尔击败了共和党候选人、奥马哈市议员布林克·哈丁。
培根曾在关税以及俄乌战争等问题上批评特朗普总统,他于去年宣布不会寻求第六次连任,这为民主党创造了拿下该席位的绝佳机会。培根在2024年以微弱优势赢得连任。
尽管在过去三十年里,这个奥马哈地区选区仅有两年未由共和党掌控,但它在过去五次总统大选中有三次选出了民主党人。内布拉斯加州是一个深度共和党倾向的州,其总统选举人票按国会选区而非“赢者通吃”原则分配,这使得该选区在总统选举年份备受关注,因为该选举人票可能在白宫竞选的胶着局势中发挥更重要的作用。
Democrats flip House seat held by Trump critic Don Bacon in Nebraska
November 4, 2026 / 12:49 AM EST / CBS News
Washington — Democrat Denise Powell flipped Nebraska’s competitive 2nd Congressional District, which is currently represented by retiring Republican Rep. Don Bacon, CBS News projected.
Powell, a political organizer, defeated Republican Brinker Harding, a member of the Omaha City Council.
Bacon, who has criticized President Trump on issues like tariffs and the war between Russia and Ukraine, announced last year he would not run for a sixth term, giving Democrats a prime opportunity to flip the seat. Bacon narrowly won reelection in 2024.
Though the Omaha-area district has been in GOP hands for all but two years in the last three decades, the district has voted for a Democrat in three of the last five presidential elections. The way Nebraska, a deep red state, allocates its Electoral College votes — by congressional district instead of winner-take-all — has put the district in the spotlight in presidential election years because that electoral vote could take on greater importance in a close race for the White House.
