    A Republican with integrity? Nobody would’ve thought it possible in this day of Trump worship and delusion.

    No worries – this time, the false elector certificates are already in Mike Johnson’s desk.

    Maine was ready to go “winner takes all” in the event Nebraska went through with these shenanigans to cancel out the extra electoral college vote. Nice try though, Lindsay Graham and the goon squad.

  4. Already failed. State senator McDonnell released an official statement about his decision .

    The electoral college already greatly favors Republicans. I mean how else can you lose the popular vote by 7 million votes and still win?!

    Just because they failed doesn’t mean those involved (Lindsey Graham) should go unpunished.

  7. Should we appeal to a voting public and earn votes?

    – Nah, I’ve got an idea…

    This guy has aspirations to run as mayor of a city in Nebraska that has a high presence of democratic voters. I’ll take it, whatever his motivation is, but it sucks that our entire democracy may have boiled down to one guy’s career goals and the political expediency of his decision.

    Why do they wait until he’s behind to change the rules? Sounds fishy

    “Elections should be an opportunity for all voters to be heard, no matter who they are, where they live, or what party they support,” McDonnell said in a statement.

    He’s a politician so I don’t know what this guy’s motivation is. Maybe he’s just a rare Republican with integrity. I’ll take the win for democracy.

    But conservative Judge Luttig’s testimony still rings in my ears, “… to this very day the former president and his allies and supporters pledge that in the presidential election of 2024, if the former president … were to lose that election, they would attempt to overturn that 2024 election in the same way that they attempted to overturn the 2020 election, but succeed in 2024 where they failed in 2020.”

    Almost EVERY republican l’ve ever met has been either incredibly stupid or just plain evil.

  14. AmI there only idiot who read the entire article to see what the jeopardy clue is?

  15. Anyone remotely into local politics here in Nebraska knew it was never going to happen.

    It’s not in jeopardy because it was never really possible. They don’t have the 33 votes they need, they don’t even have 30 and I doubt they even got 25 commitments.

    No Senator from CD2, and there are a lot of them, wants to get rid of the split vote. Republican or otherwise.

    That’s millions of dollars into the district and state every 2 years. The unions and local businesses would have crucified the Rs if they made this happen

    Mike McDonnell is a true American Patriot

    Donald J Trump lied about a stolen election FALSE

    Lindsey Graham has a secret

    JD Vance lies about cats & dogs

    Trump is a convicted felon

    Mike Pence is a true American Patriot and he is not voting for Trump

    Oh! Oh, that kind of “jeopardy”! I read this headline very differently the first time. Lol
