Doesn't NE have like 1.5 electoral votes?

They only have 1 that he's not going to win, anyway. And he just left that vote out in the cold.

This also took place a mile away, as the crow flies, from Cedar Rapids, Iowa and it's 70,000 citizens. There are at least 100,000 Iowa voters (although largely devoted republican) 90 minutes or less away from that rally. I'd bet half of the olds who were left out in the cold were Iowans.

a positive for those old MAGAs stuck at the airport for the rally is that they could stop to warm up at the Spearmint Rhino on their walk back to their cars.

Yeah, the ones who didn't have to go to the hospital could do that, anyway.

A relatively pedestrian hook from the driving range at Shoreline GC in Carter Lake could land in Nebraska if you were into that kind of thing.

Sounds Omaha is the perfect starting point for Trump's long desired infrastructure plan.

I mean the polling error is going to probably give it to trump, but it's not unreasonable

Don't pollsters typically try to correct after they miss the results of an election like they did in 2016? It seems just as likely to me that they overcorrected and polling error will favor Biden.
