Sep 19, 2026 |

Seven months ago, former Nebraska Appropriations Committee Chairman John Stinner joined The Dan Parsons Show and warned about the consequences of repeated cuts to state agencies, including losing some of Nebraska’s best people.

Now Stinner is sounding the alarm again, arguing that decisions by the Pillen administration are threatening Nebraska’s long-term financial stability.

Here’s what he told me seven months ago.

Nebraska SOS Candidate Sarah Slattery: Mail Voting Matters to Rural Voters

Sep 17, 2026 |

Nebraska Secretary of State candidate Sarah Slattery says the debate over mail-in voting has major implications for farmers and rural Nebraskans.

For voters who may live miles from a polling place, and farmers whose workday doesn’t fit neatly around Election Day, what would restrictions on voting by mail mean?

Slattery explains why she believes this is an important issue in the race for Nebraska Secretary of State.

Who Should Control Nebraska’s Elections? Sarah Slattery Makes Her Case for Secretary of State

Sep 17, 2026 |

Nebraska voters will choose a new Secretary of State on November 3, and the race is unfolding amid a national fight over who should control elections.

Democratic candidate Sarah Slattery joins the show to make her case for becoming Nebraska’s next chief election officer.
We press Slattery on some of the biggest questions facing the office: Is Nebraska’s election system working? Is voting by mail secure? How much authority should Washington have over Nebraska elections?
We also discuss Nebraska’s voter ID law, allegations of petition fraud, the record of the current Secretary of State and a basic test of election integrity: What happens when your own party doesn’t like the result?
With Election Day approaching, this is a conversation about more than one candidate. It’s about who runs Nebraska’s elections — and whom voters can trust to protect them.
