Decision time is nearing for Nebraska’s most controversial lawmaker.

Term limited at the end of 20-20, State Senator Ernie Chambers has until February to decide if he’ll run for the Douglas County Board next year.

At the same time Chambers is wondering if he’ll make another run for the Legislature in 2024.

As NCN's Joe Jordan tells us Chambers appears more interested in a return to the Legislature in four years than a run for the county board next year.
