Former President Donald Trump spoke by phone Wednesday with at least one of the two dozen Republican state senators who attended Nebraska Gov. Jim Pillen’s winner-take-all meeting at the Governor’s Mansion.

Nebraska is one of two states that award some of its electoral votes by congressional district. A vote from the Omaha area is part of Harris’s easiest path to victory.

Nebraska's split-vote electoral system, which the Democrat-leaning Maine also uses, came into effect in 1991, with the state facing multiple attempts to repeal it since. The current proposal was introduced in 2023 by Senator Loren Lippincott.

A Lancaster County District Court judge said Friday she intends to issue “narrowly” at the end of next week whether to dismiss a lawsuit seeking to invalidate Nebraska’s medical cannabis petitions.
