LINCOLN — As she did to get on the ballot, Nebraska Democratic Party-backed U.S. Senate candidate Cindy Burbank might have to sue the state to get off it.
Nebraska Attorney General Mike Hilgers confirmed to the Examiner late last week that the Secretary of State’s Office in Lincoln has reached out for guidance on whether the state’s top election official, Bob Evnen, can keep Burbank on the November ballot once she asks to be removed, which she can do once the election is formally certified on June 8. Hilgers described the conversation about next steps as “mildly premature.”
Burbank’s race to be the Democratic Senate nominee drew national attention as she and her opponent, anti-abortion pastor William Forbes, both faced allegations of being “planted” candidates to help either registered nonpartisan Dan Osborn or Republican U.S. Sen. Pete Ricketts, which the accused candidates and both competing major campaigns deny.
Osborn has until Aug. 3 to gather enough signatures to get on the November ballot. But Osborn and Ricketts are already in a heated race.

republiCON party is a party of rat-fuckers. 
The Nebraska Democratic Party did a stellar job promoting Burbank against the P.rickett plant. Dems know their job in November.
