Republican Rep. Don Bacon is again in a tight race to try to hold onto the Omaha-based 2nd Congressional District, which is typically Nebraska's only competitive U.S. House district and is one the GOP has tried to tighten its hold on through redistricting.
In Tuesday's election, Bacon will face Democrat Tony Vargas, a state lawmaker from Omaha who has touted his experience as a former teacher and member of the Omaha Public Schools Board.
