Nebraska

Racial Representation
Of Nebraska's voting population of 697,019, 7.6% are black and 5.5% are Latino. There are currently no black or Latino representatives. Under the proposed super districting plan, racial minority voters supporting a candidate with crossover appeal could elect a candidate of choice in coalition with white voters.

Political Analysis
In the 2000 Presidential election, George W. bush won Nebraska with 62% of the popular vote over Al Gore's 33%. The state's Democratic partisanship is 34.9%. Under the current system, Democrats cannot carry the vote in any of the three congressional districts. Under the proposed super districting plan, voters would likely elect two Republicans and one Democrat.
