311 are from Omaha. COINCIDENCE?!
Proud to be from Nebraska! Go Obama!
NC, NE, NM, hmmm, can I buy another N?
Plus, for good measure, add in an OR senator …
Nice job second congressional district! You’ve made a native Omaha-an proud.
The electoral college makes no sense! Everything should be decided by popular vote.
Can we repeat the “holy fucking shit” part, plz?
Will, you forgot NY, NJ, and NH. Not to mention NV. Why are you so fucking stupid?
the only state he didn’t win a county in was OKLAHOMA. mccain failed to win a county in VT, NH, MA, RI & CN.
Obamaha’s not part of Real America.
Um, this will not be the first time a state has split its electoral vote. It was very very common before the 1900’s. Michigan and North Dakota did it in 1892, for example.
It’s the spirit of Malcolm X hovering over his hometown…
Addendum: Alabama split its vote 6 to Byrd, 5 to JFK in 1960 as well.
I’ll always be grateful my parents moved away from there when my siblings and I were young.
Nebraska? For “That One”? Holy fucking shit indeed.
I think you meant to say “Obamaha”.
You’re welcome.
@15 wins
@7 – because they were already in the bag, Fnarf.
Damn. Too bad I hate East Coast weather.
Holy fucking shit indeed. For us little blue dots floating in a sea of red (literally on game days), seeing that blue square on fivethirtyeight.com is the best we could hope for here in our state. Oh, NE also voted to abolish affirmative action in state hiring this election.
Greetings from Obamaha! it’s nowhere near as bad as some here claim. I wish our local weekly (the reader) carried savage love, though.
and yeah, that uncle ward connerly sponsored initiative sucked. a lot of people were confused about what they were voting for.
That’s wonderful news. It almost makes me take back all the horrible things I have said about Omaha over the years.
Almost.
Actually, I wouldn’t mind Omaha if they didn’t have this annoying habbit of tearing every single interesting thing in town down.
