Contributing sentiments towards policy:

61% : Gabbard encouraged the audience to "convince" other voters in the district to vote for Trump.
55% : On an unseasonably warm October evening in eastern Nebraska on Saturday, with only 17 days until the 2024 presidential election, both the Harris and Trump campaigns descended upon the Cornhusker State to deliver a similar message to its 2nd Congressional District: their votes could singularly decide the outcome of the race.
49% : "Nebraska has been a hot topic nationally many times this cycle -- first for the possibility it might change its Electoral College process into one more favorable to Trump and taking away power from the "Blue Dot," and now for its increasingly competitive House and Senate races that could determine the balance of power in both chambers.
42% : On Saturday, Kennedy laid out a hypothetical election night scenario that he said was based on internal polling he conducted while he was a candidate, in which Harris wins Michigan, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania and Trump wins North Carolina, Georgia, Nevada, and Arizona.
34% : The possibility that Trump and Harris tie at 269-269 -- where neither hits the 270 electoral votes required to win the presidency -- isn't out of the question in a race forecasted by pundits and pollsters to be close.
