WASHINGTON- If Joe Biden ends up in the White House, there’s at least a chance it will be thanks to that lone Electoral College vote the former vice president secured by finishing first in Nebraska’s 2nd Congressional District.

Both campaigns paid attention to the district. Trump paid a late visit to Omaha for a rally while Biden invested in resources in the area. Wednesday morning, enough battleground states had been called to eliminate most of the scenarios where Omaha-area voters represent the linchpin to the whole election. But it remained at least a theoretical possibility.

For example, if Biden would finish up 270-268 if he won Arizona, Michigan, Nevada and Wisconsin, while Trump took Pennsylvania, Georgia, North Carolina and Maine’s 2nd District. A 270-268 Biden victory also would be the result if he won Michigan, Pennsylvania, Nevada and Maine’s 2nd District, while Trump won Arizona, Wisconsin, Georgia and North Carolina.

The final tally would be the same if Biden won Arizona, Michigan, North Carolina and Maine’s 2nd District and Trump won Wisconsin, Nevada, Pennsylvania and Georgia.

The district went blue for the first time in decades when Barack Obama successfully campaigned in the area during his 2008 election.
