LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) A monumental moment at the Capitol as Nebraska Electors took the voice of the people and turned it into electoral college votes on Monday.
Within thirty minutes, four electoral votes went to President Donald Trump and Vice President Mike pence, while one vote from District 2 went to President Elect Joe Biden and Vice President Elect Kamala Harris.
Most of the eyes in the room were on Precious McKesson, who was the first black female electoral voter in Nebraska’s history. She represents District 2 and said moments like Monday mean a lot not just for African American women but women in general.
