- Chris Janicek, businessman and candidate for U.S. Senate in 2018
On June 16, 2020, Janicek lost the support of the Nebraska Democratic Party after allegations of sending sexually explicit text messages about a female campaign staff member and allegedly using racist slurs to insult a guest at a party 20 years ago surfaced. Nonetheless, Janicek refused to drop out of the race and his name remained on the ballot in the general election.Eliminated in primary
