The Nebraska bill to end the practice of letting each U.S. House district choose its own presidential elector, LB 777, has been indefinitely postponed. That almost certainly means the author has given up on moving it ahead this year.
Nebraska and Maine are the only states that let each U.S. House district choose its own presidential elector.
The bill will never go through. The upper ups at the GOP want to leave the option open for TX to do elector splitting in the near future, probably as of 2016, as the state is trending more and more blue and losing it’s 38 EV completely to the democratic party would be a death blow for the GOP.
So, GOPers are quietly quashing the idea of rescinding elector splitting in NE since many on the inside are considering for to TX within 6 years.
To clarify above: TX currently has 34 EV, but after the census it is sure to pick up 3, if not 4, EV: Therefore I wrote 38 EV for TX, thinking into the future.
Each state should keep the number of electors but these electors should have a weighed vote. In Nebraska’s case, using the 30,000 rule, they would have 2 senators and 68 or 69 reps. When it comes to Electoral Votes, each Senatorial Elector would have 1 vote, while each District Elector would have about 23 votes.

Frankly, I have no trouble with each individual Congressional district its’ own elector, myself.

Half the votes in half the gerrymander areas = about 25 percent ANTI-Democracy minority rule.
