Nebraska polls close at 8:00 PM CST. We here in Omaha can hardly wait! We are closely watching the presidential race in CD-02, since we here in NE can divide up our electoral votes. We are hoping to give Obama the CD-02 EV in this extremely "red" state. This would be a first for Nebraska!
The Esch-Terry race for the CD-02 seat is a dead heat. Esch came within 10 points of unseating Terry last time. Shout-out to the Esch volunteers for their energy and enthusiasm, let's hope it's rewarded with a victory.
Scott Kleeb and Mike Johanns are vying for the Senate seat vacated by Chuck Hagel. Johanns is a former governor and Kleeb is new to the populous eastern portion of the state. He is well-liked in the western part of the state and has been advertising heavily in Omaha. Keep your fingers crossed!
Note: Maps may have wrong election year-can be updated to current races on the upper left of each-(thx)!
NE-CD-02 Esch v. Terry
NE-Sen Kleeb v. Johanns
