'It's certainly a challenge for Nebraska families': GOP senator who supports war in Iran on its economic impact
Inside Politics

Republican Sen. Pete Ricketts is facing an unexpectedly tough reelection race against independent Dan Osborn in Nebraska. One reason the normally ruby-red state is up for grabs: the economic challenges voters there face because of the war in Iran. Still, Ricketts says that "a country that chants death to America can't be allowed to have a nuclear weapon. They've killed tens of thousands of their own people, they'd kill hundreds of thousands of ours. I think a lot of people understand the danger that the largest state sponsor of terrorism poses to us."
