    The race is legally non-partisan. Brandt and Riskowski are registered Republicans. Ebke is a registered Libertarian.

    Brandt and Ebke advance to the general election in November.

    In May 2014, results in Nebraska LD-32:

    4,401 Laura Ebke
    3,576 Phil Hardenburger

    In November 2014, results in Nebraska LD-32:

    6,102 Laura Ebke
    5,941 Phil Hardenburger

    In 2014, Ebke was registered as a Republican, and Hardenburger was registered as a Democrat.

    (Yes, the May election had 2 candidates, and both candidates advanced to November.)

    Disclosure: I have donated money to Laura Ebke’s campaign.

  3. 1/2 or less votes x 1/2 rigged gerrymander areas = 1/4 or less Control = ANTI-Democracy minority rule OLIGARCHY — even in so-called nonpartisan regimes.
