Vice President Kamala Harris has secured an electoral vote from Nebraska’s 2nd Congressional District, marking a rare win for a Democrat in a historically red state. The 2nd District, including Omaha and surrounding suburbs, has been a battleground area, with swings between Democratic and Republican representation in recent years. Democrats heavily invested in the campaign in the district, targeting conservative voters with messages promoting Harris. Republicans attempted to revert Nebraska’s electoral vote allocation to a winner-take-all system, but were unsuccessful. If successful, this move would have given Trump all five of the state’s electoral votes. Nebraska is one of two states that allocates electoral votes by congressional district, making the victory in the 2nd District significant for the Democratic Party.
