How did Nebraska manage to get such a FF state legislature?   Not even generally FF states have one of those.
The NE legislature is nonpartisan and unicameral. I imagine that helps.

Also, keep in mind that the veto override procedure only requires 60% support from the legislature in NE, not the usual 67%.

Ultra conservative Pete Ricketts will lose in 2018!
Not in Nebraska.

Hopefully Ben Nelson clobbers this cueball again


Nelson would be 77 on election day 2018. Probably a bit too old for the job.
