Trump heads to deep-red Nebraska for campaign rally

What happened: Trump is holding a rally in Grand Island, Nebraska on Monday, the day early in-person voting begins there. Nebraska has a Senate race and a key House race on the ballot. Key numbers: Trump won Nebraska statewide three times by around 20 points each time. Nebraska splits its electoral college votes, and the Democratic candidate got one electoral vote in 2020 and 2024. Why it matters: Sen. Pete Ricketts faces independent Dan Osborn in a closely watched race with no Democrat on the Senate ballot. Omaha's 2nd District is a top Democratic target with Rep. Don Bacon retiring.
