the thread where this came from
I worked with Phatt, I know his leanings, and really trust him.
SCS voting guide via Phatt
FOR AUDITOR OF PUBLIC ACCOUNTS
Mike Foley REPUBLICAN
Kate Witek DEMOCRAT By most accounts (aside from Heinemen’s) Witek’s been a good auditor. I like that she’s been pushing for comprehensive performance audits. Heinemen threw a chair in her office once. The fact that she’s really quite conservative doesn’t actually bother me. Unless she becomes governor in 4 or 8 years. And never, in a million year’s would I have expected this.
Kelly Renee Rosberg NEBRASKA
Steve Larrick GREEN I like voting for Greens, but not this time.
FOR PUBLIC SERVICE COMMISSIONER
DISTRICT ONE
Vote for ONE
Frank Landis REPUBLICAN I like Frank. I’ve had drinks with him and he’s Dave’s brother. I suspect that he doesn’t want to regulate cell phones much
Charlie Matulka DEMOCRAT I really like Charlie. He’s a decent guy who is way smarter than he let’s on. Charlie, I suspect would regulate cell phones more and lobby for lighting up LES’s dark fiber (he would have some say in this.
Frank will likely win this pretty big.
FOR COUNTY CLERK
Vote for ONE
Patricia A. Owen REPUBLICAN
Dan Nolte DEMOCRAT X marks the spot.
FOR COUNTY ASSESSOR -REGISTER OF DEEDS
Vote for ONE
Norman H. Agena REPUBLICAN I don’t own a house, but I’m not convinced that this office has been run too well. I don’t like the formula used. it’s a tough call.
Patrick Faden BY PETITION I don’t know this guy.
They’re both Republicans and really, it won’t likely matter. Agena will win.
FOR PUBLIC DEFENDER
Vote for ONE
Dennis R. Keefe DEMOCRAT X marks the spot.
County Commisioner
I can’t vote for any of them. There are no Democrats running and the Republicans running are all awful. I was going to say “especially Workman” but Deb Shorr is pretty bad, too. They’re all pretty bad in some manner.
FOR MEMBER OF THE LEGISLATURE
DISTRICT TWENTY-SIX
I can’t say anything about legislative races, as both my jobs make anything I say publically problematic. If any of you have any questions I can explain in private. PM me.
FOR MEMBER OF THE STATE BOARD
OF EDUCATION
DISTRICT FIVE
Vote for ONE
Patricia H. Timm
Alan Jacobsen X marks the spot. He’s a Democrat.
FOR DIRECTOR
LOWER PLATTE SOUTH
NATURAL RESOURCES DISTRICT
Subdistrict Five
Vote for ONE
Steve Larrick If he had an opponent (D or R), I’d still for for Steve. He’s a green.
FOR DIRECTOR
LOWER PLATTE SOUTH
NATURAL RESOURCES DISTRICT
Subdistrict Nine
Vote for ONE
Robert C. Andersen
Micah R. Kohles X Marks the spot.
FOR DIRECTOR
LOWER PLATTE SOUTH
NATURAL RESOURCES DISTRICT
Subdistrict Ten
Vote for ONE
Brennen Miller X marks the spot.
Jason Hayes
FOR DIRECTOR
LOWER PLATTE SOUTH
NATURAL RESOURCES DISTRICT
At Large
Vote for ONE
Terry Kubicek
David M. Landis X marks the spot (Duh!).
Amendment 1: Help for nonprofit groups
The amendment would allow local government to use tax-exempt bonds to finance buildings that would then be leased or purchased by a nonprofit organization. This would allow local nonprofit agencies to take advantage of the lower interest rate of government tax-exempt bonds.
Proposed by Dave Landis. That’s all the endorsement I need.
Amendment 2: Help for Lincoln’s Community Health Endowment Fund
This amendment would allow greater diversity in investing city public endowment funds and is intended to help Lincoln’s Community Health Endowment Fund.
Proposed by Chris Beutler. That’s all the endorsement I need.
Amendment 3: Compulsive gambling programs
This amendment would increase lottery funding to the Compulsive Gambler’s Assistance Fund from $500,000 to $1 million.
Sure.
Amendment 4: Probation and Parole
The amendment would make it easier for two agencies to work together. Now, probation employees, who work with people sentenced to specific probation requirements rather than being sent to prison or jail fall under the state court system and the judicial branch of government.
This was proposed by Kermit Brashear. I haven’t agreed with Brashear much. I think, though, this looks like a good idea. And when it comes to nuts and bolts governmental procedures, Brashear is no slouch.
Amendment 5: Early childhood education
This amendment would allow the state to use the interest from $40 million in state funds for grants to early childhood education programs. The state money would be combined with at least $20 million in private donations to create an early childhood education endowment fund.
The $40 million in state money is part of the perpetual fund for schools and the interest is divided among all public schools, based on student population.
Susan and Peter Buffett will provide at least $5 million to jumpstart the private donations for this public-private partnership.
This just seems like a great idea pretty much automatically. The fact The Western Nebraska Taxpayers Association opposes this amendment, pretty much seals the deal. Those people are nuts.
Amendment 6: Changing TIF requirements
This amendment would remove the requirement that property be substandard and blighted to qualify for special property tax financing. It would also expand the definition of what would qualify for TIF to include development, in addition to rehabilitating and redeveloping.
Again, this just makes sense on its face. Matt Connealy supports it, too. I’ve had issues with him. But when it comes to rural redevelopment in Nebraska, there are few people I trust more.
This link explains this Amendments well.
http://www.journalstar.com/articles/2006/10/08/local/doc4528236cbbe78108869260.txt
Initiative Measure 421
A vote “FOR” will amend the Nebraska
County and City Lottery Act to authorize
the use of video keno gaming devices.
If you like the idea of machines like those stupid video games on bars showing up more and then mix that with pickle cards, in more bars…
I hate those stupid video games on bars. My libertarian side says yes. My aesthete side says no.
Referendum ordered by Petition of the
People
Referendum Measure 422
A vote to “Retain” will retain Legislative
Bill 126 enacted in 2005 by the First
Session of the Ninety-Ninth Nebraska
Legislature, and that bill will (1) dissolve all
Class I school districts and repeal the
statutes dealing with their formation; (2)
attach Class I school districts to Class
II,III, IV and VI school districts; (3)
distribute Class I territory, assets and
liabilities (except for bonded
indebtedness); (4) prevent elementary
attendance centers for all school districts
including former Class I districts from
being closed under certain circumstances;
(5) provide for certain student
transportation requirements; and (6)
provide for aid to schools for transition
and elementary improvement.
Pretty complicated looking huh? Well, it is pretty complicated. Class 1 schools and their elimination causes a lot of people to get very upset. I don’t quite understand all of this. But if Ron Raikes and Kate Witek are on the same page of this, well… Really, it comes down to money. consolidating Class 1 school districts into larger districts will likely save a lot of money that the state spends on education. The one room schoolhouse seems nice, but it’s 2006. Vote to retain.
Proposed by Initiative Petition
Initiative Measure 423
A vote “FOR” will amend the Nebraska
Constitution to impose a state spending
limit based upon a calculation involving
previous appropriations, the inflation rate
and population change in Nebraska.
A vote “AGAINST” will not amend the
Nebraska Constitution to impose such a
state spending limit.
This is easily one of the worst pieces of legislation ever proposed in Nebraska history. I tried to post a long description as to why I think this and something ate it. Suffice to say, if you want publically funded school programs you should vote against this. This could really mess up the states budget. It’s awful and is not even inspired by a popular Nebraskan movement. It’s inspired by a guy who doesn’t live in Nebraska and could spend money to hire people to get signatures. It’s truly awful.

A nicely understated post that does not shout for attention, and a look at craftcabin maintained the same quiet quality, understatement is a stylistic choice that distinguishes serious writing from attention seeking writing and this site has clearly committed to the understated approach as a core editorial value rather than just a phase.

Thanks for keeping the writing direct without losing the warmth that makes content feel human, and a stop at linkloomshop carried both qualities forward, balancing professionalism and personality is a rare skill and the writers here have clearly figured out how to consistently land it across many posts which I notice.
JettSanna · 08/22/2026 at 9:53 AM
Started reading skeptically because the headline seemed overconfident, and the post earned the headline by the end, and a look at nauticalnook continued that pattern of earning its claims, sites that can back up their headlines without overpromising are rare and this one has clearly developed editorial calibration on that front consistently.

Reading carefully here has reminded me what reading carefully feels like, and a look at argonarmor extended that reminder, the experience of careful reading versus skimming is different in ways I had partially forgotten and this site has clearly refreshed my memory of what attention feels like when content rewards it consistently.

Now realising the topic deserved better treatment than it has been getting elsewhere, and a look at vionvogue extended that broader recognition, content that exposes the gap between actual quality and average quality elsewhere is doing the quiet work of raising standards and this site is contributing to that elevation in its own corner.
SylvesterSlure · 08/22/2026 at 9:56 AM
Reading this on a slow Sunday and finding it perfectly suited to a slow Sunday read, and a quick stop at pebbleplaza kept the same gentle pace, content that fits the mood of the moment is something I notice and remember and this site has the kind of pace that suits relaxed reading sessions especially well.

Thanks for a post that does not try to be funny when it is not the moment for it, and a stop at liftlighthouse maintained the same appropriate seriousness, knowing when humour helps and when it just signals desperation for engagement is a sign of editorial maturity that many blogs have not developed yet.

Hi there, everything is going well here and ofcourse every one is sharing information, that’s
actually good, keep up writing.
CalvinPEK · 08/22/2026 at 10:05 AM
Decent post that improved my afternoon a small amount, and a look at blog44hospital added a bit more to that, sometimes the small wins online add up over time and a useful site like this one is the kind of place that contributes consistently to those small wins for me lately across many different topics I follow.

Will share this on a forum I am part of where it will be appreciated by others working in the same area, and a look at casacable suggests there is more here worth passing along too, definitely a generous resource that deserves a wider audience than it probably has today across the open internet.
Stephenimpex · 08/22/2026 at 10:08 AM
Closed the post with a small satisfied sigh, and a stop at blog66chances produced the same gentle exhale, content that ends well is content that respects the rhythm of reading and the writers here have clearly thought about how their pieces close rather than just trailing off when they run out of things to say.
EricSaumN · 08/22/2026 at 10:09 AM
Honestly this hits the sweet spot between detail and brevity, no rambling and no shortcuts, and a quick visit to vionvogue kept that going across the related pages, the kind of place that respects your attention without trying to grab it through cheap tactics or attention seeking design choices that get tired fast.
Victorskync · 08/22/2026 at 10:11 AM
A piece that read as the work of someone who reads carefully themselves, and a look at sitefixstation continued that informed feel, writers who are also serious readers produce work with a different quality and this site reads as the product of someone steeped in good writing rather than just generating content for an audience.
Nathantak · 08/22/2026 at 10:15 AM
Adding to the bookmarks now before I forget, that is how good this is, and a look at macromerchant confirmed the rest of the site is worth saving too, this is one of those rare finds that justifies the time spent searching the web for once which is a relief in the current environment.

Started a draft response in my head and ended without publishing it because the post said it well enough, and a look at belvarin produced the same effect, content that satisfies my urge to add to it by being complete enough on its own is rare and represents a particular kind of editorial completeness here.
HoracioPen · 08/22/2026 at 10:17 AM
Found the post genuinely useful for something I was working on this week, and a look at blog44happy added more material I will reference, content that connects to my actual life and work rather than just being interesting in the abstract is the kind I will pay attention to and return to repeatedly.

Really nice to see things explained without overcomplicating the topic, the words flow naturally and stay easy to follow, and a short visit to blog66chances only added to that experience because the same simple approach is used across the rest of the page too without any change in tone.
KrisWhast · 08/22/2026 at 10:20 AM
Will recommend this to a couple of friends who have been asking about this exact topic, and after urbannet I have even more reason to do so, the kind of site that earns word of mouth rather than chasing it through aggressive marketing or paid placements is always a treat to find online.

Now adjusting my mental list of reliable sites for this topic, and a stop at briovista reinforced the adjustment, the small ongoing curation work of maintaining trusted sources is one of the actual practical activities of careful reading and this site has earned a permanent place on my list for this particular subject.
CalvinPEK · 08/22/2026 at 10:28 AM
Appreciate how nothing here feels copied or pieced together from other places, the voice is consistent and the tone stays human, and after I checked blog44hospital I noticed the same style holds, which is a small detail but it makes the whole experience feel personal rather than like another generic site.

Reading this gave me a small refresher on something I had partially forgotten, and a stop at casacable extended the refresher, content that strengthens existing knowledge rather than just adding new is content with a particular kind of consolidating value and this site is providing that consolidating function across multiple visits.
EricSaumN · 08/22/2026 at 10:31 AM
Speaking as someone who reads a lot on this topic this site has earned a high position in my source rankings, and a stop at vionvogue reinforced that ranking, the informal ranking of sources for a topic is something I maintain mentally and this site has moved into the upper portion of those rankings clearly.

Just dropping by to say thanks for the effort, it does not go unnoticed when a writer cares this much about the reader, and after I went through softforest I was certain this is one of the better corners of the internet for this particular kind of content which is genuinely refreshing.
HoracioPen · 08/22/2026 at 10:36 AM
Honest take is that this was better than I expected when I clicked through, and a look at blog44happy reinforced that, the bar for online content has dropped so much that finding something thoughtful and well constructed feels almost noteworthy now which says more about the average than about this site itself.
EricSaumN · 08/22/2026 at 10:39 AM
Liked the careful selection of which details to include and which to skip, and a stop at vionvogue reflected the same editorial judgement, knowing what to leave out is just as important as knowing what to include and this site has clearly figured out where that line sits for the topics it covers regularly.

Good clean post, no errors and no awkward phrasing that breaks the reading flow, and a stop at ciphercart kept the same standard, definitely the kind of editorial care that earns a return visit because it tells me the writer is paying attention to details that matter to readers rather than just rushing publication.
