In the best interest of the district, it is apparent that Don Bacon should be elected to represent. Don Bacon has had over 30 years of experience in the US Air Force, and he supports veterans dearly. He is the current incumbent and the second district of Nebraska has been prospering during his time in office. Don Bacon has been helping the economy in Nebraska, educating the workforce to adapt to the changing times, and making it easier for small business owners to make a profit and become successful. Many Nebraskans care about the well-being of the environment in Nebraska, and Don Bacon has those same interests at heart. He has been dedicated to improving the environment in Nebraska by looking for new technologies to solve climate change issues and working on the Growing Climate Solutions Act. He is also dedicated to helping Nebraska’s seniors, which occupy 13% of the population, by providing more medicare benefits and free enrollment in medicare programs.

 

     Many of the polls have been showing that Bacon has been winning by a margin. The latest poll is showing that Bacon is up by 3 points compared to Eastman. Many previous polls show that Bacon was up by 10 points. The reason for this could be that he has proven that he helps the economy and acts in the best interests of the people, due to his successful incumbent term. There are also many veterans in Nebraska (11.3% of the population), so they have a strong connection with Bacon as he is a veteran too.
