WASHINGTON — Nebraska Democrats got a pep talk Wednesday night from one of their own.

Omaha native Symone Sanders, a senior adviser to Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden, participated in a virtual watch party for the state’s delegation to the party’s national convention.

Sanders said she was disappointed that they couldn’t all be together in Milwaukee this week as originally planned but said she was excited to connect with the group via videoconference.

“Thank you, thank you, thank you, from one Nebraska girl to another, from one Nebraskan to all of you Nebraskans out there on the call,” Sanders said. “I miss home. I miss you all.”

much of partisan division. Makes one wonder if Congress would be better off as a unicameral body? If the Senate gets rid of the 60-vote majority rule it'll be just like the House with it's simple majority rule and we might as well combine them both into a unicameral, single body.
