Lindsey Graham advocates for electoral vote change during visit to Nebraska


Sen. Lindsey Graham met with Nebraska Governor Jim Pillen and Republican legislators to discuss changing how the state allocates its electoral votes. Currently, Nebraska allocates its votes by congressional district, and switching to a winner-take-all system could give former President Trump an extra electoral vote in a close race. This one vote could be crucial in deciding the outcome. Gov. Pillen has expressed a willingness to call a special legislative session to address this issue, but has not yet received enough support from state senators to make the change.

The Trump campaign has been pushing for Nebraska to adopt a winner-take-all system, similar to most other states. Efforts to change the system have faced procedural hurdles in the past, but supporters remain hopeful that they can overcome these obstacles. Maine is the only other state that does not have a winner-take-all system for electoral votes, and there has been discussions about potentially changing their system if Nebraska does so.

Graham’s visit to Nebraska on behalf of the Trump campaign has raised questions about potential changes to the state’s electoral vote allocation. This issue could have significant implications in future presidential races, especially if the state’s electoral votes become crucial in a close election.
