The Biden campaign has been quietly reaching out to Nebraska Democrats amid discussions in the state about changing its method for allocating electoral college votes. This move comes as the GOP in Nebraska attempts to modify the electoral vote distribution, a change that could potentially complicate President Biden's path to securing 270 electoral votes necessary for reelection. Although the GOP's effort was initially defeated 'for now', the possibility of future success remains and picks up momentum, raising concerns about the implications for the electoral college balance, including a potential tie. However, some opinions suggest that this change 'probably won't cost' Biden the Electoral College.
