Republicans and Democrats trade plant candidate claims in Nebraska Senate primary
2 articles · Updated · The New York Times · May 11
Ahead of Tuesday's vote, Democrat Cindy Burbank says she would quit if nominated to aid independent Dan Osborn, while Democrat William Forbes is accused of helping Republican Senator Pete Ricketts.
Republicans say Osborn, despite running as an independent, is effectively a Democrat because he has received national Democratic donations.
They also question a marijuana legalization party candidate as a possible Democratic plant, though Forbes and the third-party contender deny the allegations.
Could a candidate's plan to withdraw after tomorrow's primary ultimately decide Nebraska's next senator?
