Dan Osborn, the independent candidate running a repeat bid for a Nebraska Senate seat, is leaning on Democrats to pad his campaign coffers in a challenge against Sen. Pete Ricketts (R-NE).
Osborn raised thousands of dollars in recent months from current and former Democratic lawmakers, in addition to hundreds of thousands of dollars through a fundraising platform used by Democratic candidates, according to federal campaign filings.
Osborn received $2,000 from the campaign of Sen. Elizabeth Warren (D-MA), $2,000 from Rep. Jamie Raskin’s (D-MD) Democracy Summer Leadership PAC, $3,000 from former Nebraska Sen. Bob Kerrey, and $5,000 from former Montana Sen. Jon Tester’s Treasure State PAC. Osborn, a union leader and steamfitter by trade, also raked in more than $350,000 via Democrats’ ActBlue fundraising platform.
