If the presidential election somehow comes down to Nebraska, Republicans have a plan to make sure it works out in former President Donald Trump's favor.
Democrats haven't won Nebraska in a presidential election since 1968, but the Cornhusker State's post-1992 system of allotting three of its five electoral votes based on congressional district results allowed former President Barack Obama and President Joe Biden to each pull one electoral vote in 2008 and 2020 respectively by performing well in the 2nd district, which includes the Omaha metro area. According to a report by the Nebraska Examiner, state Republicans want to stop the leak by passing legislation that would turn Nebraska into a winner-take-all state like every other state in the union except for Maine, and they're getting help from the Trump campaign.
