"Nebraska Republicans Push for Winner-Take-All Special Session"

TL;DR Summary
Nebraska Governor Jim Pillen is considering calling a special legislative session to award all of the state's Electoral College votes to the presidential popular vote winner, following pressure from conservative pundit Charlie Kirk and the state GOP. The move would change the current system, where votes are allocated by congressional district. Kirk and Republicans are pushing for the change, while Democrats argue that the current system better reflects the state's voter diversity. The potential special session would also address property tax relief, but the GOP is divided on the issue.
