Raecke Declines Run Brooks May Seek Governor Seat
Nebraska Democrats face a shifting field as Raecke, a Central City attorney who lost twice for governor, says he will not run in 1955 while Ralph Brooks of McCook Junior College contemplates a bid after consulting Omaha and Lincoln leaders. Filing closes April 3 and other races see new candidates. A. L. Miller seeks re election with a GOP challenger and Kenneth Gotobed plans a bid for Fourth District. Other GOP contenders include Don McGinley and Ralph Mead. Democrats currently lack candidates for Lieutenant Governor, Auditor, and Secretary of State.
