John Cavanaugh in Nebraska’s open 2nd District primary, with more than 51,000 votes counted and the race too close to call; the winner will face Republican Brinker Harding in November in a pivotal battleground that could influence control of the House, as outside money and intra-party splits shape the contest and its implications for Nebraska’s electoral votes.
