In Late Push To Help Trump, Nebraska GOP Might Take An Electoral Vote Away From Kamala Harris

[Lakhota]

Trump's allies want the state to move to a winner-take-all system for its Electoral College votes to make it harder for Harris to win.

With eight weeks to go until Election Day, Nebraska Republicans are considering passing a law to change how the state distributes its electoral votes in a bid to deny Democratic presidential nominee Kamala Harris any vote from the state.

Nebraska is one of two states, along with Maine, that does not allocate all of its electoral votes to the overall winner of the state. Instead, it provides two electoral votes for the statewide winner and then one vote for each of its three congressional districts.

The state’s 2nd Congressional District, centered on Omaha and its suburbs, has swung toward Democrats since former President Donald Trump was elected in 2016. Trump only narrowly won the district after GOP nominee Mitt Romney won it comfortably in 2012. In 2020, President Joe Biden won the district and its one electoral vote by 6.5%. The most recent polling of the district shows Harris with a similar lead to Biden’s 2020 margin.

The push to change Nebraska’s electoral vote allocation is being led by GOP Gov. Jim Pillen and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.). Graham flew to the state to lobby state lawmakers at the governor’s mansion on Wednesday.

Sure seems dirty to me! And why is Senator Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) involved? What do you think?

It’s pretty dumb for Nebraska to have a split electoral vote.


Would make a lot more sense for the big states to do that, like California and New York.

 

[Rambunctious]

I don't think all republicans in the state are on board with this.... it would work both ways so why potentially shoot yourself in the foot... that's what dems do... but we will see the pressure is on...

More dishonest gerrymandering by Republicans.

Whats Lindsay Graham doing in Nebraska asking for them to change this?

If A democrat was doing this, we'd never hear the end.

So. . this isn't O.K. for Nebraska to do, but just fine for the big cities in California and NY to determine how the electoral votes are distributed there?

"With a population of over 1.9 million, it is the 38th most populous state and the 7th least densely populated."

Nebraska - Wikipedia

en.wikipedia.org

"The nation's 40th-most populous city, Omaha had a population of 486,051 as of the 2020 census.[7]"

Omaha, Nebraska - Wikipedia

Every single person in Omaha would have to vote DNC, as well as a significant portion of the hinterlands.

Scary stuff.

Are you saying that you are against democracy? In order to do this they would have to pass legislation, which is how a democracy works. Are you against democracy?

 

[Clipper]

Was Graham able to remove the stink of Trump's ass off his face before he went to Nebraska to push for this legistlation?

And why did Trump's asslicker lie & say he went there to discuss national security?

 

[Missourian]

Fighting fire with fire.

You feelin' the heat?

 

[Missourian]

Scary stuff.

Doing what every other state in the Union save Maine and Nebraska do is scary?

You must live a very sheltered life.

Boo.

The only reason you morons are defending this is because it helps Trump win. You might as well admit it. No one is buying your bullshit. Let’s pretend Colorado had this system instead and there was an electoral point that would go to republicans. You would throw childish tantrums up and down this board if Colorado voted to change that system.

The best defense is a great offense.

Democrats have no hesitation in changing the rules as it suits them.

Neither should we.

If Trump wins the election, the Democrat Party will be eating crow for years.

They are so invested in beating Trump that their whole identity is now built around that singular goal.

Being repudiated and embarrassed by losing to President Trump will likely cause a massive recalibration of the Democrats...pulling them back from the threshold of Crazy town and realigning the party to it's more moderate roots.

So, yeah...I'd be pissed...just like I was pissed when Democrats passed Obamacare via reconciliation. Like I was pissed over The Russian Collusion Delusion. Like I was pissed when Liberals lied though their teeth about Kavanaugh. Like I was pissed when Pelosi ripped President Trump's State of the Union speech in half, and impeached him twice over nothing. Like I was pissed the Media and Democrats lied for years about Biden's deteriorating mental health.

Like I was pissed when a liberal kook tried to assassinate President Trump not once, but twice in a month.

So...if you're pissing...**** an A good.


It's your ******* turn.

Okay so, what changes specifically, have democrats passed to help win the electoral map in 2024? Go ahead. I’ll wait.

lol liberal kook huh? You mean a guy who voted for Trump in 2016 and then had unaffiliated or independent as his registration over the years? What kind of liberal kook does all that?
