About Cindy Burbank
A Genuine Voice for Nebraska's Future
Meet Cindy
Cindy Burbank represents what Nebraska politics should be: honest, straightforward, and focused on the people, not political gamesmanship.
Born and raised in Omaha, Cindy has spent her career fighting for working families as a labor attorney and community advocate. She's seen firsthand how political manipulation and insider games hurt everyday Nebraskans.
When establishment politicians tried to plant a fake Democrat to manipulate the primary election, Cindy decided enough was enough. While this campaign began as a pointed response to political cynicism, it has grown into something more: a movement for authentic representation.
"If they can manufacture candidates, we can raise up real ones. Nebraska deserves better than political theater—we deserve genuine leadership."

Core Values
Integrity First
Politics should be about ideas and service, not manipulation and tricks. Cindy believes in honest debate, transparent government, and respecting voters' intelligence.
Democracy Matters
When powerful interests try to game the system by planting fake candidates, they undermine the foundation of our democracy. Every vote should count, and every candidate should be real.
Working Families First
Nebraska's strength comes from hardworking families, not political elites. Cindy fights for good jobs, affordable healthcare, quality education, and economic opportunity for all Nebraskans.
Nebraska Values
Honesty. Hard work. Community. These aren't just campaign talking points—they're the values Cindy lives every day and will bring to the Senate.
“This campaign started as a response to political cynicism, but it's become a fight for something much bigger: the soul of our democracy and the future of Nebraska.”
