LINCOLN — Nebraska's five electors cast their votes for president Monday, with outgoing President Donald Trump getting four of the state's five electoral votes and President-elect Joe Biden getting one.
Gov. Pete Ricketts and Secretary of State Bob Evnen, both Republicans, watched as the five Nebraskans cast their Electoral College ballots on behalf of nearly 1 million voters just after 2:10 p.m. Monday.
The four GOP electors — George Olmer and Darlene Starman of Lincoln, Teresa Ibach of Sumner and Steve Nelson of Axtell — cast their votes for Trump.
Nebraska Democratic Party staffer Precious McKesson of Omaha cast her electoral vote for Biden.
