Nebraska is one of those states that splits its electoral votes by three districts. The district that include Omaha is traditionally a democratic vote. But the Governor is pushing for a bill to make it winner take all in the state(and they have the right to do this), and they are likely to vote on this soon.

What does this mean? That single vote in the Omaha district could make a very easy map to 269 for Trump, without having to win any rust belt swing states. So this means that an electoral map can easily be put together with Donald Trump getting to 269 EC votes, which would be a tie. And this map shows Trump losing all the rust belt swing states. So Nebraska by changing their law could make a very easy electoral map for Trump, with basically 269 votes could already be in the bank.

Nebraska goes winner take all in EC?

Also interesting today is that it appears that 50 senate seats are already guaranteed to the GOP. 49 GOP senate seats are considered basically safe at this point, and Joe Manchin is not running, and the GOP candidate has a 12-15 point lead. So Manchin's seat is flipping, this puts the Senate back to the GOP if Trump wins. And they could easily get more seats.
