BELLEVUE- The race for Governor in Nebraska is an uphill battle for Democratic candidate Carol Blood, especially considering the fact that there is a Republican majority of voter registrations. However, Blood believes that Nebraskans are ready for change, and she's more than willing to do just that.

On Sunday, Blood attended a fundraiser in Beatrice, and stated that "we're not spewing rhetoric, we're not talking party speaking points. We're saying alright, we have these opportunities to do better...this is how we're going to fix it."

Blood believes that the Republican strategy of cutting taxes isn't inherently a bad thing, but that it is often done without a plan, which she claims she has for taxes and budgeting. "But if you understand government, you'd understand that you have to have a plan. You have to have a budget that is going to mirror that plan. Just randomly cutting ends up with things like prison overcrowding for twenty years. That's what's happened in Nebraska...because they're playing a shell game with your taxes," she stated.

The democratic candidate is also leaning heavily into her prior experience in government, which she believes will give her an edge in the election. Blood stated that understanding the machinations of government makes "you a better policy maker."

At the fundraiser, Blood also discussed the recent overturning of Roe v. Wade, which she claims has caused many doctors to leave states in which trigger bans were passed.

In the coming weeks, Blood intends to travel to all areas of Nebraska, where she intends to collect input from a wide range of demographics.
