Hello, Nebraska!

My name is Carol Blood. I’m a Nebraskan, born and raised. I was born in McCook, Nebraska, raised in rural Adams County, Nebraska and raised my family in Sarpy County, Nebraska. My husband Joe and I have been married for 34 years and are blessed with three adult children and 10 grandchildren.

I love my community and have been an active volunteer and community advocate for decades. I feel my mission in life is to help and serve others.

In 2008 I was elected to the Bellevue City Council as the At-Large (city-wide) Representative. I was re-elected in 2012. In 2016, I was elected to the Nebraska Legislature to serve District 3 and re-elected in 2020. 

Nebraska communities are full of hardworking and deserving citizens. As an elected official I have always made it a priority to be accessible to my constituents. If you lived in any of the areas where I served, you likely received a phone call from me or my office checking in to see if you have any questions, concerns or comments about the legislature or policy. This is a practice I’ve maintained while serving at both the state and local level. I do this because it helps me understand the wants and needs of folks I serve by hearing and noting their concerns directly.

I would be honored to serve as your next Governor and will make sure your collective voices are heard. Together we can continue to make our Nebraska communities great places to live and raise our families. Let’s not participate in the partisan politics we see at all levels of government across our great country. In Nebraska, we can keep our eye on what is important – people. Those seeking to serve in public office should not serve special interest groups or political parties, they should serve you.

I ask for your support and your vote for a better Nebraska. We need New Blood in Nebraska for the greater good of all.
