Don Stenberg (R-NEB) to Announce U.S. Senate Plans, Tuesday

Feb. 28, 2011 - PRLog -- LINCOLN – On Tuesday, March 1 at 9:30 a.m., Nebraska State Treasurer Don Stenberg will make an announcement concerning the 2012 Nebraska U.S. Senate seat currently held by Ben Nelson. The news conference will be held at the Grand Manse, 129 North 10th Street (10th & P) in downtown Lincoln.  News media and invited guests should use the P street entrance of the Grand Manse and follow signs to the 3rd floor Grand Hall, the former U.S. Federal Courtroom, where in 1974 Stenberg began his federal court law practice-- a path that eventually led him to argue several cases in the United States Supreme Court.

Stenberg served as Nebraska Attorney General from 1990-2002 and was elected Nebraska State Treasurer in 2010 with 73 percent of the vote. Stenberg was the Republican U.S. Senate nominee in 2000, and although early polls showed him trailing Senator Ben Nelson by more than 30 percentage points, he lost by less than two percent in the closest U.S. Senate race in Nebraska history.  Today, two published polls show Stenberg with a 4 to 6 percent lead over Senator Nelson, even though at the time the polls were taken he was not a candidate.

Media not able to attend the news conference should contact Dan Parsons at 402-580-2321 or dan@parsonsinc.net to make interview arrangements.
