RacetotheWH Forecast & Interactives

Nebraska features one of the most competitive governor primaries in the nation, led by Republicans Charles Herbster and Jim Pillen. Herbster’s standing has been hurt by sexual allegations from multiple women, but recent polling shows a highly competitive race. In third place is Brett Lindstrom, who trails the top two contenders, but is close enough to have a fighting shot at victory.

We’re now running a primary forecast for Nebraska Governor. Please keep in mind that our primary forecast is more experimental than our general election forecasts for the House, Senate, and Governorships. In early testing, it was able to call over 94% of primaries correctly.

RacetotheWH launched in the 2020 election cycle, and our forecast was one of the nation's most accurate. It called over 93% of races right, and was more accurate than all of its top competitors at predicting the final margin in close Senate races. We’re projecting the result for all 34 Senate Races up in 2022.
