On Tuesday, Republican Donald Trump secured victory in the electoral vote for Nebraska’s expansive and rural 3rd Congressional District. The former president successfully outperformed Democratic candidate, Vice President Kamala Harris, in this predominantly conservative region, which spans 80 counties and encompasses two different time zones.

This district is renowned for its strong conservative leanings and has shown significant support for Trump in previous elections, backing him by nearly a 3-to-1 margin in both the 2016 and 2020 races. Historically, it has been a solid Republican stronghold, having not elected a Democratic representative to the U.S. House since 1958.

The Associated Press officially announced Trump’s triumph at 9:25 p.m. EST, confirming what many had anticipated given the district’s political tendencies and voting history.
