I Prayed have prayed
God, we lift up the election in November before You. We pray not for our preferred candidate, but for Your will to be done. We ask for a fair and free vote that will reflect You.

We previously covered how Nebraska’s electoral system could change the results in November. Will the GOP change this before the election?

From Townhall. Nebraska has renewed efforts to make it a winner-takes-all electoral votes state after Gov. Jim Pillen (R-NE) and Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC) met with more than 20 Republican state senators to discuss changing the state’s electoral college votes.

Nebraska and Maine are the only states that do not follow the winner-take-all system for electoral votes. Instead, it gives two electoral votes based on the statewide result and votes allocated by who wins certain congressional districts. In Nebraska, two of the five electoral votes are awarded to the candidate who wins the most votes statewide, while the other three go to the winners of each of the state’s three congressional districts. 

In recent months, the red state has attempted to secure a move that would award former President Donald Trump an extra electoral college vote in what will be a tight race. The extra vote could secure the election for the 45th president.

Earlier this year, Gov. Jim Pillen (R-NEB) and Trump endorsed a proposal to change the state’s Electoral College to a winner-take-all system. Ultimately, it was struck down. 

However, Pillen announced efforts to call for a special legislative session that would reconsider the proposal if the GOP had 33 votes to make the change.

Father God we pray in the name of Jesus Christ your son! That you would have mercy on America! For we are under siege by the wicked! They are falling the truth lies and lies the truth! There is no honesty in them as they call good evil and evil good! We pray their lies and corruption will be exposed in Jesus name! We ask you Father God to break the hold these wicked and corrupt people have in this nation! We ask you to push back the darkness, the powers of immorality and the murder of the unborn! May America turn back to you God and repent! For you have blessed us with freedom and we have used it for our own selfish desires! Now a spirit of delusion has fallen upon America! We ask you to break the powers of evil and set the captives free in Jesus name! Amen
