Parent Teacher Conferences mean late nights at work. Late nights at work mean later nights reaching out to voters. #harkness4oppd #2026 #OPPDistrict2

Oh, the places the campaign trail takes you. I love Omaha and my community, but something about driving dirt roads and being surrounded by corn and soybeans brings peace to my rural roots.

Being a candidate can be a solitary thing at times. Coming together with others, especially given recent events, was nice. #2026 #getdemselected #harkness4oppd #bettertogether

Alright, I get it — canvassing isn’t everyone’s favorite thing to do (even if it is mine). But it is the one thing that’s been proven to have the greatest impact when it comes to getting voters to actually show up.

That’s why Amy, Josh, and I need your help on Sunday the 14th.

Everything we cherish about the American Dream is built on the dedication and strength of hardworking people in labor and unions. Today, we honor and thank all who continue the fight to keep that dream alive. Happy Labor Day!

It has been a week! Between knocking on doors, supporting my local party, neighborhood association outings, work, and most importantly, being a husband and father sleep has been a scarce resource this week. #needsleeporcoffee #OPPDistrict2 #harkness4oppd #2026

Finished off "shoebox" number two, had several great conversations, and got to enjoy the uniqueness that is South Omaha! #OPPDistrict2 #southomaha #2026 #harkness4oppd

Nebraska, I think it would be hard to still call ourselves a flyover state!

fharkness1.bsky.social @fharkness1.bsky.social · Jul 30

We had a great turnout! Thank you, everyone who made it out!

fharkness1.bsky.social @fharkness1.bsky.social · Jul 24

All business! We are just a few weeks into this campaign, but we are already hitting big milestones with voter outreach! #oppd #2026 #doingthework

Yes we are falling behind because fossil fuel corps have spent the last 15 years swarming rural towns with disinformation that wind and solar will give them cancer, have chips in them for China to spy on them, ice will spin off and decapitate their kids and other conspiracies.

The Bulwark @thebulwark.com · Jul 18

We're talking about nuclear, or even just fossil fuels, instead of "pursuing an aggressive buildout of the cheapest and fastest energy that we have, which is solar and to some extent wind."

Luckily, locally, the OPPD is currently working to address this issue. The problem is, especially with the passing of the OBBB, who is going to feel the impact of the cost to make these investments vs who will get the most benefit? When elected to the board, I will fight for you!

Blackouts and power outages could be 100 times more common in the U.S. by 2030, in part because of rising demand and an aging power generation infrastructure, according to a Department of Energy report released this week.

Gun deaths are preventable. We just need leaders brave enough to make the changes needed. Thank you, Moms Demand Nebraska, Senator Juarez, Senator John Cavanaugh, and Councilman Festersen, for speaking up!

It was a great night at the Sout Omaha Neighborhood Alliance (SONA) Annual Banquet. This is one of my favorite groups in South Omaha, and they do great work. Thank you, Senator Juarez, for the invite!
