End the electoral college for god’s sake.

If Republicans didn't gerrymander the fuck out of districts we'd be winning the electoral college vote for the 1st congressional district too.

Nebraska Congressional District 1 Map

[-] expr@programming.dev 2 points 1 month ago

It's actually gotten worse since then even. Sarpy county is now part of the district. They even used the new map (which of course favors Republicans) in the 2022 special election in violation of congressional rules: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/2022_Nebraska%27s_1st_congressional_district_special_election.

But since when have Republicans ever cared about rules?
