The 2024 United States presidential election in Nebraska took place on Tuesday, November 5, 2024, as part of the 2024 United States presidential election in which all 50 states and the District of Columbia participated. Nebraska voters chose electors to represent them in the Electoral College via a popular vote. Nebraska has five electoral votes.
A sparsely populated Great Plains state, Nebraska has voted Republican in nearly every presidential election since its statehood, making exceptions only for favorite son William Jennings Bryan; Woodrow Wilson; Franklin D. Roosevelt in his first two terms; and landslide winner Lyndon B. Johnson. Democratic presidential candidates have not been able to come within single digits of carrying the state since Johnson carried the state in his 1964 landslide, and the only Democrat to win more than 40% of the statewide vote since then was Barack Obama, who garnered 41.60% in 2008.
Nebraska is one of two states — the other being Maine — that allocates their electoral votes separately by congressional district in addition to two electoral votes going to the statewide winner. Trump improved his percentage share of the statewide vote in this cycle compared to both 2020 and 2016.
The first district is considered to favor Republicans, with Trump carrying it by 11 points in 2020. Trump ended up winning it by 13 points in this election. [1]
The third district is even more heavily Republican, backing Trump by 52 points in 2020. Trump won this district by 54 points in this election. [1]
The 2nd congressional district, which contains Omaha and some of its suburbs, has been competitive since 2008, and in recent years has leaned Democatic. Obama narrowly won the district in 2008, marking the first time in 44 years that a Democrat won any of the state's electoral votes. In 2020, the district flipped back to the Democratic column, backing Joe Biden by 5.9%, despite the state at-large voting Republican by a landslide margin. In 2024, Trump lost the district again, as Democratic Vice President Kamala Harris carried it by five percentage points. [2] [3] This marked the first time that a Democrat had carried the district in consecutive elections since Nebraska started using the congressional district method in 1992, and by extension, the first time since 1936 that Democrats won electoral votes from the state in consecutive elections. Tim Walz, the running mate of Kamala Harris and governor of Minnesota, was born and raised in Nebraska. [4]
This was the first presidential election since 2012 when Nebraska's 2nd congressional district failed to back the winner of the Electoral College, the first time that a Republican candidate won the presidency without carrying the district, and the first time since 1908 that a Republican won the presidency without sweeping all of the state's electoral votes.
It was the sole electoral vote that Trump won in 2016, but failed to reclaim in 2024. It is also the only electoral college vote Harris gained that Hillary Clinton did not in 2016. [5]
In April 2024, there was a failed push from some Republicans to replace the split Electoral College voting with a winner-takes-all system. A second attempt failed in September. The change to winner-take-all had been supported by Trump, Governor Jim Pillen, 2nd district congressman Don Bacon, [6] and Turning Point USA founder Charlie Kirk. [7] [8] [9]

The following presidential candidates have received ballot access in Nebraska: [15]
In addition, Robert F. Kennedy Jr. successfully made it on the ballot, but took his name off of it when he withdrew.
In April 2024, there was a failed push from some Republicans to replace the split Electoral College voting with a winner-takes-all system. The change was prompted by a possible scenario where if Joe Biden carried the blue wall states of Wisconsin, Michigan and Pennsylvania, but no other swing states, the second district could give Biden the decisive 270th electoral vote. [16] While Republicans control the state legislature, the attempt failed due to internal opposition. Only eight legislators voted to advance the proposal when it was brought forward at the end of the legislative session. Republican Senator Mike McDonnell, who had given the caucus a filibuster-proof majority when he switched his affiliation from Democratic, stated, "I am not voting for cloture on winner-take-all, and I am not supporting winner-take-all." [17]
Governor Jim Pillen said he would call a special session to adopt a winner-take-all system if it were to get the necessary support for passage. As bills in Nebraska normally take effect three months after being signed, it would need to be passed with an emergency clause and the support of two-thirds of 49 senators – meaning all 33 Republicans – in order to be effective for the election. Maureen Terry, a Democratic leader in Maine, responded to the efforts by signaling that if they were successful, the Maine legislature would also adopt a winner-take-all system to negate any benefit given to Republicans. [18]
After Kamala Harris replaced Biden as the Democratic presidential candidate, a second push to change to a winner-take-all system began in September after Republican nominee Donald Trump and several of his allies spoke to Republican legislators and Pillen about instituting the change. Pillen stated he would call a special session for the change if supporters could give him commitments from the 33 legislators needed to overcome a Democratic filibuster; at the time, three of the 33 Republicans in the legislature, including McDonnell, who was expected to be the last holdout, had not committed to supporting the change. [19] [20] Due to restrictions in Maine law, Maine would not have been able to counter such a change in time for the November election, meaning the change would almost certainly have secured an extra Republican electoral vote. [21] McDonnell stated on September 23 that he would not vote to change the system before the election, preferring that the issue be decided by the state's voters. [22] The following day, Pillen stated he would not call a special session. [23]
