Protect Fair Representation: Oppose Winner-Takes-All Electoral System

To: Sen. Ballard, Gov. Pillen

From: A constituent in Lincoln, NE

April 10

The proposed winner-takes-all electoral system in Nebraska risks undermining the democratic principle of fair representation. The current system, which allocates electoral votes based on both statewide and House race outcomes, ensures a more representative reflection of voter intent. A shift to a winner-takes-all system could skew the system towards a single party, silencing diverse political voices. Therefore, it is urged that the Legislature vote against this change, considering the potential implications on political diversity.
