Much of that cash is being spent by a new group called Common Sense Nebraska, which has shelled out a remarkable $4.9 million in the three weeks since it was formed—largely on ads opposing an initiative that would enshrine abortion rights in the state constitution and supporting a separate initiative that would ban abortion. As of the most recent campaign finance filings, the organization still had another $500,000 in the bank. Nebraska is one of 10 states with abortion-related measures on the ballot.
