Was Nebraska a red state?
An insurance company I know of is moving out of Minnesota (a blue state) to Nebraska.

Thanks!

2. Nebraska is a very red state. It hasn't gone for a Democrat since LBJ
in 1964.

3. One of the reddest. I fricking hate living here.
Keep in mind that Minnesota was barely a blue state.

And they did elect that idiot Norm Coleman.

That being said, it's a hell of a lot bluer than Nebraska.

4. Only Nebraska and Oklahoma were ALL RED
Every single county was red in only those two states.

6. It is very red here, but there are a surprising number of
very liberal people for such a red state.

7. People were shocked when Democrat Bob Kerrey became Senator
But he is a medal of honor winner so that doesn't hurt

8. he had been governor
but yes, Nebraska is funny, it elects democrats to governor often, and sometimes democratic senators but its always a republican state in general elections mostly. Kerrey, Exon, current senator Nelson examples of dems who were elected governor and became senator. All these guys were way more conservative than national democrats too.
