Good Skews: Chair of the Nebraska Democratic Party, Jane Kleeb
On this episode of Good Skews, we interview Jane Kleeb, a seasoned grassroots organizer, author, manager, and political strategist in the Great Plains.
Since December 2016, Kleeb has held the position of Chair of the Nebraska Democratic Party, and she is currently serving her fourth term, which extends until November 2026. She also holds the role of Chair of the Association of State Democratic Committees.
Her leadership has fostered the creation of innovative programs such as Block Captains, 93-County Voter Guides, and the Candidates of Color Fund. She is the longest-serving Chair in the history of the Nebraska Democratic Party.
Our conversation delves into the recent surprising upset in Omaha’s mayoral election, where longtime Republican incumbent Jean Stothert was defeated with 56–44 percent of the vote. Ewing’s victory marks a historic moment as he becomes the first Black mayor of Omaha and represents a strong rejection of anti-transgender campaign tactics.
