MSNBC, the liberal news network, seems to be having a meltdown over a proposed change in Nebraska’s electoral system that could potentially throw a wrench in their political game plan. The culprit behind MSNBC’s panic? Republican Governor Jim Pillen of Nebraska who is boldly backing a bill that could shake things up in the 2024 presidential race.
The bill in question, introduced by Senator Loren Lippincott, aims to switch Nebraska back to a winner-takes-all system for electoral votes, rather than the current method that divides votes by congressional district. And boy, does this have the left-wing media in a tizzy!

Governor Pillen didn’t hold back his support for the bill, stating that it would align Nebraska with almost every other state, give more power to the people, and make sure the Cornhusker State speaks with one clear voice in presidential elections. His endorsement has sent shockwaves through MSNBC, who is clearly not happy about the potential impact on their favored candidates.
The reactions from prominent conservatives like Charlie Kirk, who highlighted the game-changing effects of the bill for the Republican party’s future success, have only added fuel to the fire. If former President Trump manages to nab key victories in certain states, this new proposed system could play a critical role in swinging the electoral vote count in the GOP’s favor.
Nebraska’s current system has allowed Democrats to snatch an electoral vote from the Omaha district, which is a sore spot for Republicans. But with Governor Pillen pushing for a winner-take-all setup, the left is crying foul and accusing the GOP of trying to game the system.
The liberal talking heads over at MSNBC are already sounding the alarm bells, claiming that the Republicans are up to no good with this proposed change. They are quick to paint the bill as a nefarious plot to tilt the playing field in favor of the GOP, in an attempt to discredit a legitimate effort to ensure fairness and unity in Nebraska’s electoral process.
