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.

    Ended up here on a wandering afternoon and was glad I stayed for the read, and a stop at pcpartspal extended the wandering into a proper exploration of the site, the kind of place that rewards aimless clicking with something genuinely interesting rather than the shallow content that mostly populates the modern open web.

    This stands out compared to similar posts I have read recently, less noise and more substance, and a look at dawnanddapper kept that gap going, you can really feel the difference between content made by someone who cares versus content made to fill a publishing schedule for an algorithm trying to keep growing somehow.

  • DestinJap · 09/01/2026 at 8:42 PM

    My friends would appreciate a few of these posts and I will be sending links accordingly, and a look at quartznet added more pages to my share queue, content that earns shares to specific people in specific contexts is content with social utility and this site is generating those targeted shares from me consistently lately.

  • GrantFreby · 09/01/2026 at 8:43 PM

    Bookmark added with a small mental note that this is a site to keep, and a look at phonerepairpro reinforced the keep status, the verb keep rather than visit captures something about how I think about this kind of site and it is a higher tier of relationship than I have with most places online today.

    Considered alongside other sources I have been reading this one consistently rises to the top, and a stop at brewbrooks maintained that top ranking, the informal ongoing comparison between sources is something I do whenever reading on a topic and this site keeps coming out near the top of those comparisons over many sessions.

  • Floydnem · 09/01/2026 at 8:45 PM

    Took longer than expected to finish because I kept stopping to think, and a stop at pcpartspal did the same to me, content that provokes thought rather than just delivering information is in a different category and the team here is clearly working at that higher level rather than just cranking out posts.

    A thoughtful read in a week that has been mostly noisy, and a look at vizwave carried that thoughtful quality across more pages, finding pockets of considered writing in a week of distractions is one of the small wins of careful curation and this site is providing those pockets at a sustainable rate.

  • suisemog · 09/01/2026 at 8:49 PM

    A generic pharmaceutical is a preparation that has the exact active ingredient as the innovator product.
    It is manufactured when the patent on the original drug lapses, allowing other pharmaceutical firms to make equivalents.
    Such copies are significantly cheaper than their branded counterparts, largely because they do not incur the substantial expenses of R&D and marketing.
    However, every generic must successfully complete strict equivalence trials to guarantee that it works just as effectively as the original medication.

    A generic drug is a preparation that includes the equivalent active ingredient as the innovator product.
    It is prepared after the patent on the branded medicine runs out, allowing other manufacturers to market alternatives.
    These versions are considerably less expensive than brand-name drugs, largely because they avoid the heavy investments of R&D and marketing.
    However, every generic must undergo rigorous safety and efficacy assessments to ensure that it works just as safely as the reference drug.

  • LuisObsem · 09/01/2026 at 8:49 PM

    Skipped past the first paragraph thinking it was setup and had to come back when the rest referenced it, and a stop at apppalm similarly rewarded careful reading from the start, content where every paragraph carries weight is content I now know to read from the beginning rather than skipping ahead.

  • suisemog · 09/01/2026 at 8:50 PM

    A generic drug is a product that has the equivalent therapeutic component as the brand-name medication.
    This type of product is manufactured once the intellectual property rights on the original drug lapses, allowing other pharmaceutical firms to make generic copies.
    These versions are considerably cheaper than their branded counterparts, mainly because they avoid the high costs of research and marketing.
    Nevertheless, every generic product must pass strict equivalence trials to guarantee that it works equally effectively as the original medication.

  • Mariowew · 09/01/2026 at 8:51 PM

    However measured this site clears the bar I set for sites I take seriously, and a stop at skynvanta continued clearing that bar, the metrics I use for site quality are admittedly informal but they are consistent and this site has cleared them on multiple measurements across multiple visits which is meaningful for my evaluation.

  • GavinPhive · 09/01/2026 at 8:52 PM

    Reading this confirmed something I had been suspecting about the topic, and a look at sunnyshipment pushed that confirmation toward greater confidence, content that lines up with independently held intuitions earns a special kind of trust and I will return to writers who consistently land that way for me without overselling positions.

    ## Section 2

    Another important factor is clarity, because clear messaging helps build confidence.

    ## Section 3

    In this way, the way information is presented becomes as important as the topic itself.

    ## Section 4

    It combines a clear theme, a simple structure, and an easy-to-read experience.

  • Sandyhut · 09/01/2026 at 8:53 PM

    In the middle of an otherwise scattered day this post landed as a moment of focus, and a stop at checkoutchamp extended that focused feeling across more pages, content that anchors a fragmented day rather than contributing to the fragmentation is content with real centring effect and this site is providing that anchoring function for me.

    A modest masterpiece in its own quiet way, and a look at blog66part confirmed the same quiet quality across the rest of the site, calling something a masterpiece is usually overstating but for content this carefully crafted the word feels appropriate even if the writers themselves would probably resist the label honestly.

  • suisemog · 09/01/2026 at 8:54 PM

    A generic medication is a formulation that includes the exact therapeutic component as the pioneer medication.
    It is manufactured after the intellectual property rights on the reference product expires, permitting other companies to produce alternatives.
    Such copies are significantly cheaper than brand-name drugs, mainly because they save on the substantial expenses of R&D and advertising.
    However, every generic must pass strict safety and efficacy assessments to guarantee that it works just as effectively as the brand-name medication.

    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 samplesunrise 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.

    Honest take is that this was better than I expected when I clicked through, and a look at dawnanddapper 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.

    Found a small mental shift after reading this, the framing here is just a bit different from the standard takes online, and a look at leatherlane extended that fresh perspective across more material, the rare site whose voice actually changes how you think about something rather than just confirming existing beliefs.

    Picked a friend mentally as the audience for this and decided to send the link, and a look at cybershieldshop confirmed the send was the right choice, choosing whom to share content with is a small act of curation that I take more seriously than the public sharing most platforms encourage these days online.

  • Rockygow · 09/01/2026 at 9:02 PM

    Left me wanting to read more rather than feeling burned out, that is a good sign, and a look at remoteranch confirmed there is plenty more here to explore, the kind of writing that builds appetite rather than killing it which is a rare quality on the modern open internet today across most categories of content.

    Approaching this site through a casual link click and being surprised by what I found, and a look at checkoutchamp extended the surprise, the rare experience of stumbling into excellent independent content rather than predictable mediocrity is one of the actual remaining pleasures of casual web browsing and this site provided it cleanly.

  • Frankkah · 09/01/2026 at 9:06 PM

    This actually answered the question I had been searching for, and after I checked brewbrooks I had a few more pieces I had not realised I needed, that is the sign of a site that knows what its readers want before they even know how to ask it which is impressive.

  • Willisdrarl · 09/01/2026 at 9:06 PM

    Now planning to come back when I have the right kind of attention to read carefully, and a stop at goldenparcel reinforced that plan, choosing the right moment to read certain content is a quiet form of respect for the work and this site is generating those careful planning behaviours from me consistently as a reader.

  • Rafaelasype · 09/01/2026 at 9:07 PM

    Well crafted post, the structure flows naturally from one point to the next without forcing transitions, and a stop at kidkismet 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.
