It was stated on August 2, 2019 that Innis would run to oppose Sen. Sasse.[1] Innis has effectively rebuked Sasse for the latter's refusal to sign an endorsement of Trump's re-election efforts, correctly pointing out the senator's opposition to President Trump.[2]
It was announced in late February 2020 that Innis had officially filed to run for the Senate seat.[3] The primary will be held on May 12, 2020.[4]
Campaign
As part of his campaign trail, Innis traveled to North Platte, Nebraska in early March 2020 to further his anti-establishment, right-wing populist campaign message.[5]
Political positions
A thorough conservative, Innis is, according to his campaign website, 100% pro-life, an opponent of red flag laws, and a strong supporter of Donald Trump.[6]
