"Omaha Mayor Jean Stothert, a Republican seeking reelection in one of her party’s few big-city strongholds, was supposed to be unbeatable. She had won her 2021 reelection bid for a third term with almost two-thirds of the vote, and her 2025 campaign coffers were full of money from corporate CEOs and billionaire donors. But Stothert knew she was running in a year when President Donald Trump’s extremism and billionaire “special government employee” Elon Musk’s destructive impulses had done serious damage to the GOP brand. Faced with evidence that Democrats in Nebraska’s largest city and across the country are highly motivated to vote in 2025’s odd-year elections, and with signals that the local campaign of Democratic mayoral candidate John W. Ewing Jr. was surging, Stothert and her supporters seized on what GOP strategists keep imagining to be a winning strategy: transphobia."
