State Treasurer Race

The State Treasurers office needs somebody who has spent time in Lincoln but does not live there and understands the needs of out state Nebraska. I believe Don Stenberg has had his time in elected office three terms as State Attorney General is enough. How do we know that Stenberg would serve a whole term anyway or would he try another re-match with Ben Nelson. The State Treasurers office could use somebody from the 3rd congressional district such as State Senator Deb Fischer. She is exactly the type of statewide office holder we need. she would be somebody to hold other elected leaders feet to the fire when it comes to budgetary issues. Senator Deb Fischer who represents District 43 has been a strong leader for her district. She is an excellent advocate for the issues that concern her district. Being a rancher and understanding agriculture is a key challenge that all statewide elected officials must understand. It is the opinion of this blogger that State Senator Deb Fischer would be a great candidate and an excellent State Treasurer for the state of Nebraska.
