This means that it’s possible for the Harris to win the congressional district including Omaha, and thereby obtain one electoral vote. If this happens, and she wins the Blue Wall states, she gets to 270 electoral votes and wins the election.

      Not necessarily. Nebraska’s single split electoral vote also only determines winner or tie in some election maps. If WI + MI +PA go blue and at least one of NV, AZ, GA or NC it would push it above that

      There are some other hold outs as well in the Nebraska legislature as well

        Yeah, but if it goes exactly as the polls show now, this one guy could determine the election. If the polls look the exact same on November 1st, this one person could determine the election.
