Cohen’s Exploratory Committee Issues Findings; Concludes an Independent Run for Congress in NE-03 is Feasible.
LEMOYNE, NE — Mark Cohen’s exploratory committee, formed in August, issued written Findings on Friday and concluded that an independent run for Congress in NE-03 is feasible.
Cohen is a former Air Force Judge Advocate who lives in Lemoyne and teaches karate in Ogallala.
The Exploratory Committee’s Findings concluded, among other things, that most voters in NE-03 are less interested in the so-called “wedge” issues than they are in issues such as agriculture and rural healthcare. The Findings state Cohen rejected requests to consider running as a Democrat or a Republican. The committee noted that if Cohen ran, he would be the only veteran in the race and, if elected, the only person with an advanced degree in agricultural law to serve in Congress.
