Auditing NE's Second Congressional District and Biden's 1 Nebraska EV

May 5, 2021 | Dr. Franklin

So, according to WP, Biden won one NE electoral vote from NE's Second Congressional District, which includes Dem leaning Omaha, by 22,091 votes:
2020_United States_presidential election in Nebraska by congressional district

Now, I know that NE's one electoral vote doesn't change anything, even now. I realize that there is more interest in auditing larger states, etc. However, how hard would it be to audit 337,754 ballots? An honest audit, if it found enough fraud to change that one EV, might make the NE legislature change the present EV allocation by congressional district to a more typical state wide system for future elections. Finding fraud in NE also creates momentum for audits elsewhere, as it undermines confidence in the present regime.

It is also note worthy that ES & S, one of the biggest voting machine companies, is located in Omaha, NE. How did that affect things?

Definitely should be audited

... as it undermines confidence in the present regime.

With who? Those who think the election was stolen don't need audits to believe that. Those who think it wasn't stolen aren't going to be swayed by partisan audits. Who do you think you will convince?

We need to build national outrage and a demand for widespread voting reform (IDs, purple ink, purge the rolls, etc.)

Another skewed, completely biased post by you DoodleDawg, something we have all come to expect from you.

Using your flawed standard, you probably would label the AZ audit as "partisan".

Your post sounds like it came straight out of the so-called "Main-Stream" press, which in reality is nothing more than the Propaganda Arm of the DNC.

Nice going DoodleDawg!

Nice to know I don’t disappoint.

I like the Maine and Nebraska systems of electoral vote allocation and think it should go nationwide, or at the very least, adopted by any state with more than 6 electoral votes in total.

The winner take all crap, especially in electoral vote rich states, is an open invitation for centralized fraud machines in places like Hotlanta, Philly, Detroit, Las Vegas, etc.

I agree. I like the idea of each congressional district getting one EV and then the winner of the whole state getting two bonus EVs.

Constitutionally, it's a matter for the state legislatures to decide. They always had the power to audit these election results or use the plenary constitutional power to vote their own slate of electors. If the facts show that certain places are cheating, the legislature could adjust the allocation of EV accordingly to punish them. The facts matter.

Definitely should be audited

People in each state need to demand audits. In this case, NE residents need to demand that the legislature audit the election results, at least in this district.

can’t undermine confidence when there is none

2016: Democrats say it was fixed
2020: Republicans say it was fixed

Some audits, here and there, that confirm election results would build up confidence.

What does either side have to hide?

When they don't let people witness the process of counting the votes and checking the signatures of absentee ballots, why should anyone have confidence in the results? Why should the people running the election, or their machines be trusted?

It's kind of curious. What is "partisan" about scanning ballots with UV light to check if they have been folded, or if the ovals were pre-printed for certain Dem candidates? Or maybe it's partisan to see if ballots weren't printed correctly so that the machines read them properly, or those "adjudicating" the ballots did so correctly? More likely, the audit is necessary because the election was tabulated in a biased, partisan manner. Calling the audit "partisan" needs actual facts to support that characterization. So far, none have been offered by anyone, include DD.

That's just it. There is nothing partisan about it at all. It is a totally objective process. And DoodleDawg knows this.
