Republican political strategist Ryan Horn joins the show to break down a fast-moving week in Nebraska politics. We discuss the Lincoln petition fraud investigation, Brett Lindstrom’s failed attempt to qualify for the governor’s race after fraudulent signatures were flagged, growing questions about quality control in petition campaigns, and what the shake-up means for Gov. Jim Pillen’s reelection prospects. Horn also weighs in on the Republican Party’s weakening advantage on the economy, inflation, tariffs, and whether Nebraska voters are starting to sour on the GOP brand.

Were they hired by a third-party circulation firm? Did they think local laws didn’t apply? Watch to see how the accountability system worked and caught them red-handed!

Longtime political consultant Kate Wolfe joins the show to break down the alleged petition fraud tied to Good Government Lincoln’s failed city charter initiative effort. Drawing on her experience managing statewide petition campaigns, Wolfe explains how legitimate signature collection and verification should work, where she believes this effort may have broken down, and why the unusually high rejection rate raised immediate red flags. We also discuss paid and out-of-state circulators, Nebraska’s history of petition law changes, calls for new restrictions, and whether the current system actually failed… or worked exactly as intended.⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻⸻

More than 13,300 signatures tied to a campaign to change Lincoln’s city charter have been flagged as suspected fraud and referred to law enforcement.

The signatures were submitted by Good Government Lincoln, a conservative group led by former Nebraska state senator and former state Tax Commissioner Tony Fulton. The group is trying to put three charter amendments before Lincoln voters involving term limits, election dates and voting rights for some residents outside city limits.

Lancaster County election officials rejected thousands of signatures — including more than 4,300 suspected fraudulent signatures on the term-limits petition alone.

Now the questions get bigger.

Who collected the questionable signatures? Who supervised the circulators? Were particular petition gatherers responsible for large numbers of them? And will the investigation ultimately result in criminal charges?

A law-enforcement referral is not proof that Good Government Lincoln, its organizers or its consultants committed a crime. But more than 13,000 suspected fraudulent signatures demands answers.

Nebraska politicians talk constantly about election integrity. This is where that principle gets tested.

Same rules. Same standards. Follow the evidence wherever it leads.

Dan Parsons breaks down what happened, what we know so far and what comes next in the growing Lincoln petition scandal.

Just had to pull over and share a quick update with you all! I’m currently on the road heading to the set of a brand-new, top-secret project. I can’t spill the beans on what the Parsons team is filming just yet, but let’s just say I’m excited.

I also had to weigh in on the breaking news: former state Sen. Brett Lindstrom officially turned in his signatures for his nonpartisan bid for Nebraska governor. Watch the video for my quick thoughts on what this means for this fall’s race for Nebraska governor.

Should Nebraska keep offering incentives to attract massive AI data centers? Or is it time to slow down and put local communities first?

Former Nebraska State Senator and now gubernatorial candidate Lynne Walz joins The Dan Parsons Show to discuss one of the biggest issues facing the state: AI data centers, local control, water, electricity, and economic development.

Watch this short clip from our conversation, then let me know where you stand in the comments.

Do you support bringing more AI data centers to Nebraska?

For more than 40 years, Mike Browne’s two sons have required around-the-clock care because of profound developmental disabilities and severe autism. Now, a new state assessment says they’re suddenly “less disabled.”

In this emotional message, Browne explains why he believes Nebraska’s new disability assessment system is producing results that don’t match reality—not just for his family, but for more than 700 families across the state.

He is calling on Governor Jim Pillen to pause the current assessment process, restore families to their previous level of care, and fix or replace the assessment tool before more vulnerable Nebraskans are harmed.

Browne urges viewers to sign the petition through the Disability Alliance of Nebraska and help ensure that individuals with profound disabilities receive the services they need.

Ben Steffen, a farmer from Humboldt, and running mate for Nebraska gubernatorial candidate Lynne Walz, discusses Nebraska’s shift from a $1.2 billion surplus to a $1 billion deficit over four years.

In this clip, the campaign critiques Governor Jim Pillen’s property tax plans and calls for bipartisan economic solutions.

Nebraska gubernatorial candidate Lynn Walz takes the stage in Elkhorn to announce her running mate for Lieutenant Governor: Humboldt farmer and community leader Ben Steffen. Dan was on the ground for the announcement — and caught up with both candidates afterward for a few unscripted questions on agriculture, data centers, and the rural healthcare crisis.

Steffen shares his own story — four generations on the family dairy farm, decades of local service on the school board and county planning commission, and the effort that helped save his hometown nursing home from closing. Together, the two lay out the case against the current administration’s handling of the state budget, and take questions on the issues hitting Nebraska families hardest right now.
