Winner-take-all proposal falls short in Legislature
A proposal to switch Nebraska back to a winner-take-all system for Electoral College voting fell short Tuesday in the Legislature.
π¨LB3, the βwinner-take-allβ bill, has failed to overcome a filibuster and failed to clear cloture. This comes after hours of debate on LB3 and countless Nebraskans speaking out this session in favor of the fair, representative elections that LB3 threatened. nebraskapublicmedia.org/en/news/news...

Hearing draws Nebraskans over two bills supporting winner-take-all
Nebraska is one of two states that awards its electoral college votes by congressional district.
Nebraskans spoke out in resounding numbers this week - we want to keep our elections the Nebraska way. Our state's current unique electoral system helps every Nebraskan have their vote heard and counted. www.ketv.com/article/nebr...?

Nebraskaβs unique split electoral vote is a model for a healthy democracy that helps Nebraskans of all backgrounds have their votes heard and counted. LB3 & LR24CA threaten to erase this.
