As Christian citizens living in a democracy, we have the responsibility to be well-informed and elect leaders who support Biblical principles. We have the opportunity to do this in the Lincoln municipal elections this spring.

Please vote in the Lincoln City Election on Tuesday, May 2nd.

Local elections matter, and the candidates that are elected will make important decisions regarding your neighborhood, your children’s school, and your family in the coming years.

Our vision is to see Nebraska become a state where God is honored, marriages and families thrive, life is cherished and protected, and religious liberty flourishes, and that vision begins with your community.

To help you and your family make an informed decision, Nebraska Family Alliance put together an election resource center with the candidates’ party affiliation, incumbency status, and links to learn more about where they stand on the issues. 

Scroll down to learn about the candidates you’ll find on your ballot, find election deadlines, and look up your polling place. In order for our city to flourish, we must evaluate our choices carefully, pray for wisdom and discernment, and seek to elect Godly leaders. Vote your values, pray God-honoring candidates are elected, and share our election resources with your friends and family!
