A nonprofit group announced a campaign to gather signatures for two new initiatives aimed at conservative election goals.

The two proposed constitutional amendments would shift Nebraska’s presidential elector system to a winner-take-all format and require hand-counted ballots for all elections across the state.

“Advocates for All Nebraskans” announced today that they are launching two new petitions. One proposal aims to shift the state’s presidential electoral system to a winner-take-all system. A bill to make Nebraska winner-take-all failed in the Nebraska Legislature in April.

Two ballot initiatives were announced Tuesday. One would switch Nebraska to "winner-take-all" presidential elections. Another would end the use of vote-counting and voting machines.

At a press conference on Tuesday, Advocates for All Nebraskans officially launched its signature-gathering campaign for two constitutional amendment campaigns.

Republican activists launched efforts Tuesday seeking to make sweeping changes to Nebraska's elections, including one proposal to eliminate the "Blue Dot."

Nebraska Secretary of State Bob Evnen last week weighed in on the latest request from the U.S. Department of Justice for the state’s voter registration data — showing a willingness to fulfill the request.

The city of Valley will mail out ballots for its special recall election next week. That election will be by mail only. Ballots will be mailed in 6-by-9 envelopes with return envelopes included. Voters will need to provide voter ID information and sign the back of the return envelope for that ballot to count.
