Early Voting Underway in Nebraska and Washington, D.C. for Upcoming US Presidential Election
As the November 5 United States presidential election approaches, Nebraska and Washington, D.C. have initiated early voting processes.
Nebraska, a traditionally red state where former President Donald Trump secured victories by substantial margins in both the last two presidential elections, follows a unique method of allocating its electoral votes. This unconventional approach presents an opportunity that could favor Vice President Kamala Harris.
In addition to the presidential election, Nebraskans will also be participating in two U.S. Senate races this year. The state recently opened up absentee voting on Monday without any restrictions on who can request a ballot.
