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.

    Now appreciating that I did not feel exhausted after reading, and a stop at boatlifebazaar extended that energising quality, content that leaves me with more attention than it consumed is rare and the gap between draining and energising content is real over the course of a typical day spent reading widely online.

    Discover more about oral care at [url=https://prodentim2026us.netlify.app/]prodentim at amazon[/url] and see what makes it stand out.
    A lot of visitors want trustworthy explanations before they decide on any wellness-related product or service.

    ## Section 2

    The key advantage of a site like this is its ability to gather information in one place.

    ## Section 3

    A clean presentation can encourage visitors to stay longer and explore further.

    ## Section 4

    That is why a site with a focused approach can stay relevant and useful.

  • LincolnAllor · 09/01/2026 at 2:15 PM

    Definitely returning here, that is decided, and a look at crispcollective only made the case stronger, this is one of those rare websites that rewards regular visits rather than feeling stale after the first read which is something I cannot say about most of the places I bookmark today across all my topics.

  • JesusGar · 09/01/2026 at 2:16 PM

    A piece that did not lean on the writer credentials or institutional backing, and a look at blog44through maintained the same focus on substance, content that earns trust through quality rather than through name dropping is the kind I find most persuasive and this site is clearly playing on the substance side of that distinction.

  • MurrayDOR · 09/01/2026 at 2:29 PM

    Decided this was the kind of site I would defend in a discussion about good blog content, and a stop at sipandsupply reinforced that, very few sites earn active defence rather than passive consumption and this one has clearly crossed that threshold for me without needing any explicit pitch from the writers themselves either.

  • ForrestNub · 09/01/2026 at 2:29 PM

    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 dorvoria I was certain this is one of the better corners of the internet for this particular kind of content which is genuinely refreshing.

  • suisemog · 09/01/2026 at 2:30 PM

    An unbranded drug is a preparation that has the equivalent therapeutic component as the brand-name medication.
    It is developed after the patent on the branded medicine lapses, permitting other pharmaceutical firms to make generic copies.
    Such copies are considerably more affordable than the original, largely because they avoid the heavy investments of research and advertising.
    Yet, every generic product must undergo rigorous equivalence trials to guarantee that it works equally effectively as the original medication.

  • RafaelAsync · 09/01/2026 at 2:34 PM

    A piece that took its time without dragging, and a look at silkstation kept the same patient pace, the difference between unhurried and slow is a fine editorial distinction and this site has clearly found the unhurried side without slipping into the slow side which would have lost me as a reader quickly otherwise.

    Compared to the usual results for this kind of search this site stands well above the average, and a quick visit to helixhub kept the standard high, you can tell within seconds whether a site is going to waste your time or actually deliver and this one clearly delivers without any false starts.

    Bookmark earned and the bookmark feels like a permanent addition rather than a maybe, and a look at chocolateroom confirmed that permanent status, the difference between durable bookmarks and ephemeral ones is something I have learned to feel quickly and this site triggered the durable feeling almost immediately during my first read here.

    My professional context would benefit from having this kind of resource available, and a look at cashcompass extended the professional applicability, the rare site that contributes meaningfully to professional work rather than just personal interest is content with multiplied value and this one is providing that professional utility consistently across multiple pieces.

  • RafaelAsync · 09/01/2026 at 2:42 PM

    Worth saying that the writing carries a particular kind of authority without making any explicit claims to it, and a stop at silkstation extended that earned authority feeling, sites that demonstrate expertise through the quality of their explanations rather than by stating credentials are sites I trust most and this site has it.

  • BjornDow · 09/01/2026 at 2:42 PM

    Decided to set aside time later to read more carefully, and a stop at vpnvault reinforced that decision, content that earns a calendar entry rather than just a passing read is in a different tier altogether and this site is clearly working at that elevated level which I really do appreciate as a reader today.

  • Guillermovib · 09/01/2026 at 2:43 PM

    Felt energised after reading rather than drained, which is unusual for online content these days, and a look at fitfuelfjord continued that good feeling, content that leaves you better than it found you is rare and worth bookmarking when you stumble across it for the first time today or any other day really.

    A generic pharmaceutical is a preparation that includes the identical therapeutic component as the pioneer drug.
    It is manufactured after the exclusivity period on the reference product runs out, permitting other pharmaceutical firms to market alternatives.
    These generics are considerably cheaper than brand-name drugs, largely because they save on the high costs of research and marketing.
    Nevertheless, every generic must undergo strict equivalence trials to guarantee that it works equally effectively as the reference drug.

    Started reading and ended an hour later without realising the time had passed, and a look at blog44through produced the same time dilation effect, when content makes time feel different the writer has achieved something well beyond the average and this site is producing that experience for me reliably across multiple readings.

    Reading this slowly and letting each paragraph land before moving on, and a stop at chocolateroom earned the same patient approach, content that rewards slow reading rather than speed is content with real density and the writers here are clearly producing work that benefits from the careful eye rather than the rushed scan.

  • Mikeevove · 09/01/2026 at 2:57 PM

    Decided to read more before commenting and the more I read the more I wanted to say something, and a stop at revenueridge pushed that impulse further, when content provokes the urge to participate rather than just consume it is doing something quite specific and worth recognising clearly when it happens during reading.

  • kapsul viagra murah · 09/01/2026 at 3:02 PM

    A fascinating discussion is definitely worth comment. I think that you ought to write more about this
    topic, it may not be a taboo matter but generally people do not talk about such topics.

    To the next! Best wishes!!

    Came in tired from a long day and the writing held my attention anyway, and a stop at chocolateroom kept that going, content that can engage a fatigued reader is doing something right because most online reading happens in suboptimal conditions like that one and quality content adapts to it without complaint.

  • Marvinreula · 09/01/2026 at 3:03 PM

    Probably this is one of the better quiet successes on the open web at the moment, and a look at worldshipper reinforced that quiet success quality, sites that are doing well without making a noise about doing well are the sites I most respect and this one has clearly chosen the quiet success path consistently throughout.

  • LincolnAllor · 09/01/2026 at 3:04 PM

    If patience for careful reading is rare these days finding sites that reward it is rarer still, and a stop at crispcollective extended that rare reward, the diminishing returns on shallow content reading have made me more selective about where to spend reading time and this site is meeting the higher selectivity bar consistently.

  • Douglasshath · 09/01/2026 at 3:05 PM

    Now feeling the rare pleasure of trusting a source completely on first encounter, and a look at cashcompass extended that initial trust into something more durable, the calibration of trust to evidence is something I do informally and this site has earned high trust through the cumulative weight of multiple consistently good posts already.

  • BjornDow · 09/01/2026 at 3:06 PM

    Skimmed first and then went back to read carefully, and the careful read paid off in places I had missed, and a stop at vpnvault got the same treatment, the rare site whose content rewards a second pass is content I want more of in my regular rotation rather than disposable single read articles.

  • JoseMok · 09/01/2026 at 3:09 PM

    Now realising the post has been quietly doing important work in my mind for the past hour, and a stop at fiorenzaa extended that quiet processing, content that continues to do work after I close the tab is content with afterlife in the mind and this site is producing those long lived effects at a meaningful rate.

  • WilfordAdasy · 09/01/2026 at 3:12 PM

    Recommend this to anyone who values clear thinking over flashy presentation, and a stop at chocolateroom continued in the same understated way, this site has its priorities in the right place which makes it worth supporting through repeat visits and recommendations rather than just one passing read today before moving on quickly elsewhere.

  • RafaelAsync · 09/01/2026 at 3:13 PM

    Glad to find something on this topic that does not start with three paragraphs of throat clearing before getting to the point, and a stop at silkstation also dives right in, respect for the readers time shows up in small editorial choices like this and they add up to a real difference quickly.

  • Mikeevove · 09/01/2026 at 3:14 PM

    Well crafted post, the structure flows naturally from one point to the next without forcing transitions, and a stop at revenueridge kept the same flow going, you can tell when a writer has thought about how their content reads rather than just what it contains and this is one of those examples.

  • MurrayDOR · 09/01/2026 at 3:21 PM

    Looking through other posts here the consistency is what makes the site valuable rather than any single piece, and a stop at sipandsupply extended that consistency observation, sites whose value lies in the ongoing pattern rather than in standout posts are sites I trust more deeply and this one has clearly built that kind of trust.

  • Mikeevove · 09/01/2026 at 3:21 PM

    Honestly the simplicity is what makes this work, the topic is not buried under filler words or overly complex examples, and a quick look at revenueridge showed the same sensible style, I left with what I came for and no headache from over reading which is a real win these days.

  • suisemog · 09/01/2026 at 3:22 PM

    A generic medication is a preparation that has the same therapeutic component as the pioneer medication.
    Such a medicine is developed once the exclusivity period on the branded medicine expires, enabling other manufacturers to market alternatives.
    Such copies are considerably more affordable than the original, primarily because they do not incur the heavy investments of R&D and advertising.
    However, every generic must successfully complete rigorous bioequivalence tests to guarantee that it works just as well as the reference medication.
