Our average gift from Facebook is just $26. That speaks to the kind of campaign we’re running: one powered by ordinary people — not shady special interests. And it’s working.

In a race this close, every dollar makes a difference. It means we can talk to 25, 50, 100, or more new voters. It means we can supply ou

NEW: NE-01 is officially a top-target battleground district. The DCCC just named our race a major district in play this November — and we know why: Nebraskans are DONE with Mike Flood. We’re ready to flip this seat and bring new leadership to the First District. The fight for the House runs through Nebraska, and we’re working hard to make it happen. Mike Flood’s deep-pocketed allies are going to move fast to flood TV and social media with ads to blunt our momentum. But together, with your g

I’m Chris Backemeyer, the Democratic nominee for Congress in Nebraska’s 1st District. For 20 years, I worked in national security, putting our country’s interests first. Politics was never my plan, but I refuse to stand by while Mike Flood sells out Nebraska families for out-of-state billionaires. This campaign is about fighting for working families, lowering costs, and defending affordable healthcare. We need better than a Trump yes-man who rubberstamps the policies that make our lives more

Figures cover domestic political ads paid in dollars, from 4 May 2026. Spend is the sum of Meta’s range midpoints; impressions above one million are reported as “1M+”, so impression figures are floors. Each ad counts in the week its delivery started, with its lifetime spend at our last pull; ads still running before the vote are counted as of 31 October 2026.
