The electoral college is a threat to kleptocracy.
“”” A single Republican state senator from Omaha, Mike McDonnell, has so far stood firm against a push”””
Warren Buffett also funds GOP politicians when it is to his advantage.
So no surprise that McDonnell is from Omaha.
What’s McDonnell’s problem?
The guy is going to cost Trump and Vance an electoral vote.
This is classic RINO grandstanding at its worst. I believe he was actually a democrat until last April.
>> If the Republican buckles
>> If the Democrat affirms
#ing Rats
Trump will win upwards of 310 EV. At least in this election it isn’t going to make a difference
I agree with FM that DJT will win outright, *and* I agree that this Omaha clown should be primaried, if not outright kicked out of office.
I know Trump is going to win, but I’m getting greedy.
A few months ago I felt Trump would lose....not now.
If he’s from Omaha what do you expect?
So the Nebraska Legislature has 49 members.
33 members are Republicans
It takes 33 votes to override a filibuster
Omaha is basically the third congressional district.
So the snake senator from Omaha is refusing to change the law foolishly passed in the 1990’s.
Mike McDonnell (born January 15, 1966) is an American politician who serves in the Nebraska Legislature, representing the 5th district. He was a Democrat before switching to the Republican Party in 2024 after being censured by the Nebraska Democratic Party for voting for anti-abortion and anti-transgender legislation.
McDonnell is from Omaha as are most of the 15 Democrat Senators in Nebraska.
Warren Buffett makes sure he protects himself.
republicans...always striving for 2nd place in a two man race.
Does anyone think for a second that a democrat would not help elect a democratic President if the situation was reversed? geeez
But would Maine change their process in response, and counter what Nebraska does?
I have no idea, but that should have nothing to do with what Nebraska does.
Sadly he’s a Democrat that switched parties for expediency. He’s a dead end road as far as voting with us on anything meaningful.
“But would Maine change their process in response, and counter what Nebraska does?”
It is apparently too late for the state of Maine to change now.
I still feel he will. The level of unchecked fraud seem overwhelming. What gives you your confidence?
Just a gut feeling. It’s over if Trump loses.
