Nebraska...? Really..?

I'm trying to de-election myself, but I just saw a chyron on CNN...
"Nebraska 2nd Congressional District race could tip the balance in the House of Representatives."
How did we get to this place.....that one district in Nebraska could determine the future of the country?...of the world, actually.

Most of Nebraska is blood red, but the Blue Dot will award one EV to Harris-Walz, and elect Tony Vargas to Congress!

Any congressional victory could be the one that tips the balance. We're hoping that we in Iowa flip 2 from R to D tomorrow.

Lots of red to blue blobs out there. The wave, assuming its real (its real), will sweep in lots more than the 7 seats we need to retake the house.

Seriously, this close election bs is just hype. The house is safe.

There are a lot of races we have a very good chance to flip. These are just a couple.

It's currently a Republican seat, but maybe they're expecting it to flip?

People have to learn to not take these ridiculous claims seriously. Corporate media is just using bait to get you to watch. There are far too many variables for anyone to single out a small area like this. Total BS. That's why they've "identified" such tipping points all over the place.

Tony Vargas has been ahead of Don Bacon for MONTHS. The Blue Dot in Omaha will deliver BIG for Harris-Walz and Vargas, and this has been no secret.
Thank you from the NE CD-02 🔵🔵🔵🔵🔵
