Nebraska Republican Party will no longer endorse in GOP-on-GOP races
LINCOLN — The Nebraska Republican Party reversed course this month on its endorsement policy for primary races involving multiple GOP candidates.
The party’s decision to step out of its recent habit of endorsing in contested primaries could close an era of party politics when many internal fights between old-guard conservatives and the populist right were on public display.
It comes after the state party in 2024 endorsed Republican challengers to Nebraska’s five GOP incumbents in Congress. The party eventually endorsed the federal delegation for the general election, but only after the incumbents had handily won contested primaries.
The GOP’s new endorsement policy prohibits the state party, party officers and staff from endorsing one Republican over another in contested elections. Party leaders and the state GOP can only endorse in races with one Republican.
