KEARNEY- The man who has been Kearney’s mayor for the past 17 years will seek a Nebraska Unicameral seat. “We need to have a good candidate from this area,” Stan Clouse said while announcing plans to campaign for the 37th District Nebraska Legislature seat now occupied by state Sen. John Lowe of Kearney.

“Over the years I’ve spent a lot of time in the Capitol and on statewide committees,” Clouse said. ”Being a state senator is one of the ultimate things you can do to serve Nebraska, and the timing is perfect for me.” Clouse, 66, is in his fifth term on the Kearney City Council. His current term and that of Lowe will end in 2024.

Current State Senator Jonn Lowe is barred from running for the seat again due to term limits. Clouse is the second person to declare as a legislative candidate from Kearney. In mid-June, Lana Peister announced her intent to succeed Lowe in representing the 37th District. This marks the fourth district with a to-be term-limited senator seat being sought by multiple candidates.
