💨 Abstract

A last-minute Republican attempt to change Nebraska's electoral system from a district-based split to a winner-take-all format, potentially benefiting Donald Trump, appears doomed. Key Republican lawmaker Mike McDonnell opposes the change, citing its proximity to the November 5 election. The bill requires 33 votes in the legislature, a number Republicans currently hold but cannot afford a single defection with Democrats united against it.
