What Politicians Say
Little has changed about Nebraska elections since Donald Trump lost to President Joe Biden.
The state has passed only minor legislation that would allow it to more effectively remove from the rolls voters who have moved to another state.
Trump-backed candidates in the Republican primary for governor and secretary of state who had backed his baseless claims of election fraud lost.
Ease of Voting
Nebraska made no changes to state law that would affect voting access.
Ballot Security
In 2021, Nebraska passed legislation that would allow it to join the Electronic Registration Information Center, a nonprofit that helps states see when a voter has moved or registered to vote in another state, but it has not yet joined.
How Politicians Responded to the 2020 Election
Governor Pete Ricketts proposed that Congress create a commission to look into claims of voter fraud, but ultimately said that lawmakers should certify the election.
Attorney General Doug Peterson backed the Texas lawsuit asking the Supreme Court to intervene in the election.
Representative Adrian Smith, one of three Republicans in Indiana’s delegation, objected to certification of Biden electors from Arizona and Pennsylvania.
Smith signed an amicus brief supporting the Texas lawsuit.
