Bernie Sanders is coming to Omaha to campaign for Heath Mello
Mar 30, 2017
Bernie Sanders is hoping to inject a little of his personal magic into the Omaha mayor's race.
The former presidential candidate is expected to come to the city next month to campaign on behalf of Heath Mello, the Democratic candidate for mayor.
"He is coming in but we do not have a date yet," said Jane Kleeb, the chairman of the Nebraska Democratic Party.
Kleeb, who was a Sanders supporter last fall, invited the popular Vermont U.S. senator to come to Nebraska.
Mello is challenging Omaha Mayor Jean Stothert in the city's mayoral race.
