Biden leads in race for metro Omaha's electoral vote


9:56 p.m.: Democratic nominee Joe Biden has pushed ahead in the race for the potentially crucial single electoral college vote from the Omaha area.

As Douglas County started reporting pre-Election Day early votes, Biden took the lead ahead of President Donald Trump by some 16,400 votes.

Biden had 53.7% to Trump’s 44.5% in the release from the Nebraska Secretary of State’s Office just before 10 p.m.

Trump took all of Nebraska’s five electoral votes in 2016 on his way to winning the White House. Nebraska splits three of its electoral votes by congressional district.

The results are still early. Douglas County will be adding more early votes in the coming hours.
