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.

    The depth of coverage felt about right for the format, neither shallow nor overwhelming, and a look at dieseldock kept that calibration going, getting the depth right for blog format is genuinely difficult because too shallow loses experts and too deep loses beginners but this site nailed it nicely which I really do appreciate.

    Klikam tu od dobrych paru miesiecy, wiec mysle ze moge cos dorzucic od siebie. Znalazlem to przez znajomego z innego watku, z prostego powodu — zmeczylo mnie weryfikacji ciagnacej sie w nieskonczonosc gdzie indziej. Sam lobby FieryPlay jest spore — cos ponad 2800 tytulow, glownie Pragmatic Play, Play’n GO, NetEnt i troche Yggdrasil i Betsoftem.

    Sam gram glownie w Book of Dead, no i klasyczne Gates of Olympus, standard, nie ma co ukrywac. Plus za to ze wersje demo sa dostepne od reki, przetestowalem pare nowosci zanim wplacilem cokolwiek. Wyszukiwarka za to kuleje — szukanie po nazwie dziala, reszta srednio.

    Sekcja live oparte na Evolution co akurat jest zaleta. Ruletka, blackjack, i oczywiscie game shows typu Crazy Time — potrafi wciagnac na dluzej niz zakladalem. Prawdziwi ludzie po drugiej stronie, glownie po angielsku, polskiego stolu nie znalazlem — dla czesci osob to minus.

    Oferta na dzien dobry u nich w FieryPlay to 100% do 1500 zl plus spiny i 100 free spinow, wydawane po 20 dziennie. Wager x35 — ani rewelacja, ani dramat. Widzialem takze drobne no deposit spiny po potwierdzeniu telefonu, ale to raczej okazjonalnie. Regulamin przeczytaj zanim klikniesz — kody potrafia sie zmieniac z miesiaca na miesiac, aktualne rzeczy widac na [url=https://swizzpools.com/]fiery play[/url] jesli chcesz sprawdzic przed rejestracja.

    Rejestracja zajela mi niecale trzy minuty, minimalna wplata 20 zl. Wrzucam kase Mastercardem, obok tego dzialaja Skrill, Neteller i platnosci w BTC. Wyplaty na e-portfel schodza w kilka godzin, na karte czekalem trzy dni robocze. Weryfikacja na start — standard, poszlo gladko.

    Z komorki gram bez aplikacji, nie ma appki, strona radzi sobie dobrze. Obsluga FieryPlay odpisuje po polsku bez dluzszego czekania, raz musialem powtorzyc pytanie dwa razy. Dzialaja na licencji Curacao — nie jest to najmocniejszy papier na rynku. Limitow na siebie nie ustawialem, ale opcja jest w profilu.

    A welcome reminder that thoughtful writing still happens online, and a look at goldgraph extended that reassurance, the modern web makes it easy to forget that careful writing exists and finding sites that practice it is a small antidote to the cynicism that builds up from too much exposure to algorithmic content.

    Reading this gave me something to think about for the rest of the afternoon, and after dieseldock I had even more to mull over, the kind of post that lingers in the background of your day rather than evaporating immediately is genuinely valuable in an attention economy that punishes depth rather than rewarding it.

  • fieryplay_deMi · 08/29/2026 at 6:57 PM

    Siedze tu od jakichs trzech miesiecy, wiec mysle ze moge cos skrobnac. Znalazlem to przez znajomego z innego watku, jako ze mialem dosc czekania po tydzien na kase gdzie indziej. To co FieryPlay ma w lobby jest spore — gdzies kolo 3000 tytulow, przede wszystkim Pragmatic Play, Play’n GO, NetEnt plus troche Yggdrasil oraz Betsoft.

    Sam gram glownie w Gates of Olympus i Sweet Bonanza, banal, wiem. Fajnie ze demo dziala bez logowania, polatalem po nowosciach zanim wplacilem cokolwiek. Wyszukiwarka niestety kuleje — szukanie po nazwie dziala, reszta srednio.

    Dzial z krupierami oparte na Evolution co akurat jest zaleta. Blackjack, ruletka, no i te teleturnieje typu Crazy Time — wieczorami potrafie tam zostac dluzej niz planowalem. Krupierzy realni, w wiekszosci anglojezyczni, polskojezycznego dealera brak — dla czesci osob to minus.

    Bonus powitalny na FieryPlay to byl u mnie 100% do 2000 zl i 100 free spinow, wydawane po 20 dziennie. Wager x35 — ani rewelacja, ani dramat. Zdarzaly sie jakies spiny bez depozytu za weryfikacje numeru, nie liczylbym na to na stale. Regulamin przeczytaj zanim klikniesz — promocje rotuja dosc szybko, najnowsze warunki sa opisane na [url=https://swizzpools.com/]fiery play[/url] jesli chcesz sprawdzic przed rejestracja.

    Zakladanie konta to jakies minute, moze dwie, min. depozyt to 20 zl. Wrzucam kase Mastercardem, dostepne sa rowniez Skrill, Neteller oraz Bitcoin. Wyplaty w FieryPlay ida szybko na portfele, na karte czekalem trzy dni robocze. KYC przy pierwszej wyplacie — typowe papiery, przeszlo w jedna dobe.

    Mobilnie lece przez przegladarke, nie ma appki, strona radzi sobie dobrze. Obsluga w FieryPlay odpowiada po polsku w kilka minut, choc raz trafilem na kogos kto kopiowal gotowce z FAQ. Licencja Curacao — nie MGA, wiec swiadomosc ryzyka po twojej stronie. Limity depozytu da sie ustawic w ustawieniach konta.

  • JeffOpepe · 08/29/2026 at 6:57 PM

    Now recognising the editorial wisdom of letting some questions remain open at the end, and a look at blog33movie continued that intellectual honesty, content that does not force closure on contested questions is content that respects the limits of knowledge and this site has clearly developed the maturity to know when to leave space.

  • Reneweddy · 08/29/2026 at 6:58 PM

    Learned something from this without having to dig through layers of fluff, and a stop at cashcompass added a bit more context that helped tie things together for me, definitely a useful corner of the internet for anyone who wants real information without the usual marketing nonsense around it that often ruins similar pages.

  • Tuckerceaxy · 08/29/2026 at 6:58 PM

    Now feeling confident enough in this site to use it as a reference point for evaluating others on the same topic, and a look at trueengine continued the comparison friendly quality, sites that serve as quality benchmarks for their topic are precious and this one has clearly become a benchmark for me on this particular subject area.

    Picked up two new ideas that I expect will come up in conversations this week, and a look at campcourier added another, content that arms me with talking points rather than just filling time is the kind that provides ongoing value beyond the moment of reading and this site is generating that kind of ongoing value.

  • fieryplay_omMi · 08/29/2026 at 7:06 PM

    Klikam tu mniej wiecej od kwietnia, wiec chyba moge cos dorzucic od siebie. Wpadlem na to przypadkiem, jako ze mialem dosc weryfikacji ciagnacej sie w nieskonczonosc gdzie indziej. To co FieryPlay ma w lobby jest spore — jakies 3000 pozycji, glownie Pragmatic Play, Play’n GO, NetEnt plus troche Yggdrasil oraz Betsoft.

    Ja osobiscie najwiecej klikam Gates of Olympus i Sweet Bonanza, standard, nie ma co ukrywac. Plus za to ze mozna odpalic demo bez zakladania konta, przetestowalem pare nowosci zanim wplacilem cokolwiek. Wyszukiwarka za to jest przecietne — szukanie po nazwie dziala, reszta srednio.

    Zywe stoly stoi na Evolution co akurat jest zaleta. Ruletka, blackjack, plus te ich show typu Crazy Time — potrafi wciagnac na dluzej niz zakladalem. Prawdziwi ludzie po drugiej stronie, w wiekszosci anglojezyczni, polskojezycznego dealera brak — komus moze to przeszkadzac.

    Pakiet na start na FieryPlay to 100% do 2000 zl z setka darmowych spinow, nie wszystkie od razu, po czesci. Wager x35 — da sie przerobic, choc trzeba pilnowac. Widzialem takze drobne no deposit spiny po potwierdzeniu telefonu, choc to akcja czasowa. Warunki przejrzyj zanim klikniesz — oferta bywa inna niz tydzien wczesniej, biezace promo znajdziesz na [url=https://swizzpools.com/]fiery play casino[/url] jesli chcesz sprawdzic przed rejestracja.

    Zakladanie konta to jakies niecale trzy minuty, od 20 zl mozna zaczac. Wrzucam kase Mastercardem, obok tego dzialaja Skrill, Neteller oraz Bitcoin. Kasa wychodzi na e-portfel schodza w kilka godzin, karta to juz dwa-trzy dni. Weryfikacja przy pierwszej wyplacie — dowod plus rachunek, nic strasznego.

    Z komorki smiga w przegladarce, apki nie ma i chyba nie potrzeba. Czat z supportem FieryPlay odpisuje po polsku bez dluzszego czekania, chociaz raz dostalem odpowiedz zywcem z FAQ. Curacao, tak jak wiekszosc tego typu miejsc — dla mnie ok, ale kazdy niech oceni sam. Narzedzia do samokontroli sa, sprawdzalem.
