Nebraska has a U.S. Senate situation which may sound similar to Georgia in 2020: Deb Fischer and Pete Ricketts (both of whom are Republicans in this red state) are both up for re-election at the same time this November due to former Governor Ricketts being appointed to fill out the remainder of Ben Sasse's term after Sasse resigned.
