Moyer v. Backemeyer: NE-01 Democratic Primary Forum

Apr 30, 2026 |

CD1 Democratic primary candidates Eric Moyer and Chris Backemeyer join the show for a head-to-head forum ahead of the May 12 election. The two candidates outline competing approaches on health care, including Medicare for All versus strengthening the Affordable Care Act, and debate how to address rising costs for working families. We also discuss global instability and its impact on Nebraska agriculture and energy, along with each candidate’s strategy for closing the district’s Republican voting gap and taking on incumbent Congressman Mike Flood in November.
