In reply to the discussion: BREAKING: Rep. Don Bacon (R) on Trump's second indictment [View all]jayschool2013
(2,479 posts)30. Biden carried that district in 2020
And it wasn't close: 52.3 percent to 45.7 percent for Trump and 2.0 percent for the Libertarian candidate, Jo Jorgenson.
And that gave Biden an electoral vote because Nebraska splits its electoral votes by district.
Omaha, a moderately liberal city, comprises much of District 2.
Lincoln is a liberal city of 340,000 in District 1, but the rest of the district is nearly 95 percent GOP, so even though Lincoln is governed by Democrats, primarily, the rest of the district makes it non-competitive.
District 3 is dominated by Republicans skews the rest of the state's voting to the right.
