Nebraska Democratic Party Chair Jane Kleeb’s Statement on Senator McDonnell’s Opposition to Winner-Take-All
LINCOLN, NE – Nebraska Democratic Party Chair Jane Kleeb released the following statement after Sen. Mike McDonnell announced his final opposition to any changes to Nebraska’s split electoral vote system before the 2024 election, protecting the interests of Nebraska voters:
“Nebraska has a long and proud tradition of independence, and our electoral system reflects that by ensuring that the outcome of our elections truly represents the will of the people without interference. Senator McDonnell is standing strong against tremendous pressure from out-of-state interests to protect Nebraskans’ voice in our democracy. In this election and those to come, Nebraskans will continue to lead the way by electing leaders at every level who stand up for the people and respect our spirit of independence.”
