WHOA! CNN has a SPLIT in NEBRASKA!

[ZombieNixon]

How unlikely is that!

1. you gotta' be kidding me!

That state is rabidly anti-Dem. If that's true, it really means something.

2. Not all of us Huskers are dummies! n/t

Awesome!

[SaveElmer]

3. Is it actually a split or some to close to call ...nt

[ZombieNixon]

4. They've got 4 votes for Bush

and 1 vote with "insufficient information." Their title for NE says "SPLIT" and it's marked purple.

[TexasSissy]

6. That means one district hasn't reported yet, I guess.

[Meritaten1]

5. Not unlikely at all

Nebraska is predominently Republican, but unemployment is an issue here (plant closures, rural depopulation).

[AgadorSparticus]

7. un-freakin-believable!!!!

c'moooooooooon, Nebraska! :kick:

[ensemble]

8. 1 congressional district is basically Omaha...

and the vote might be close there - like Iowa. I assume thats were the one vote for Kerry might come from.

9. Didn't they say the same thing about Maine?

I didn't believe that, either.

But I'd like Nebraska to be split ...

[karlrschneider]

10. It's not unlikely, it's mandatory. They like Maine split electors.

sheesh

[0rganism]

11. That could change some scenarios, right there

I sense a big-time mess, chaos sprouting up all over the place.

[liberalpragmatist]

12. One district is too close to call for now

It'll probably go to Bush. Still, it'd be a nice victory, and if we win Ohio and NH, lose NM and WI, that 1 EV from Nebraska would make it 270-268 Kerry.
