Five people will walk into the Governor’s Office on Dec. 14 and cast the final deciding votes of Nebraska’s 2020 presidential election, cementing the voters’ will in the Electoral College.

Two women and two men, Republicans from Lincoln, Sumner and Axtell, will cast their Electoral College ballots for outgoing President Donald Trump, who won the popular vote statewide and won the vote in two of the state’s three congressional districts.

One woman, a Democrat from Nebraska’s Omaha-based 2nd Congressional District, will cast the state’s fifth electoral ballot for President-elect Joe Biden, making some history of her own.

Precious McKesson, 41, a staffer for the Biden campaign in Nebraska, will be the first woman and the first woman of color in Nebraska to cast an Electoral College ballot for a Democrat.

3. OK is this reThuglican Math? 5 people will walk in.... 2 women and 2 men....

When I was in school 2+2 = 4

Unless Nebraska is REALLY progressive and has an LGBTQ who is declining to identify but willing to vote.... I think there is something funky with the math there.

4. 2 men + 2 women are Republicans

PLUS Precious equals five.

5. Ah, just a badly worded sentence. Thanks. nt
