Primary Election Official Results OFFICIAL REPORT OF THE NEBRASKA BOARD OF STATE CANVASSERS PRIMARY ELECTION MAY 12, 2020 Compiled by Robert B. Evnen Nebraska Secretary of State STATE OF NEBRASKA _____________ OFFICE OF SECRETARY OF STATE _____________ This is the 53rd Edition of the Primary Election Canvass Book that has been published in this state, and it is my first serving as Nebraska’s 27th Secretary of State and Chief Elections Official. The May 12, 2020, primary was historic in a number of respects. More Nebraskans voted in our 2020 primary election than in any other primary election in the history of our state. There were 492,580 Nebraskans who voted in our primary election. This broke the previous record of 413,015, which was set in 1972. What makes this turnout even more remarkable is that Nebraska voters broke the record in the midst of the coronavirus pandemic. An unprecedented number of voters chose to vote early. More than 383,000 Nebraskans voted in this manner. They were joined by the more than 31,000 voters who cast their ballots in precincts that conducted their elections exclusively by mail. By comparison in the 2016 presidential primary and again in the 2018 primary, about 60,000 voted early. On Election Day, every precinct opened on time and over 76,000 Nebraskans voted at their polling site. A number of measures were taken to assure the safety of voters and poll workers. I am very grateful to the more than 4,000 poll workers who kept Nebraska’s polls open. I want to acknowledge the poll workers who returned to service in this primary, the many new workers who stepped up and served for the first time, and the members of the Nebraska National Guard who volunteered to serve as emergency poll workers if the need arose. Although a number of other states moved the date of their primaries, Nebraska did not move the primary election from the statutorily required date. The success of our primary election was the result of the efforts of our Nebraska voters, our County Clerks and Election Commissioners and their staff members, and the Secretary of State’s Elections Division team headed by Deputy Secretary of State Wayne Bena. Nebraska Voters refused to allow the coronavirus pandemic to prevent them from exercising their right to vote. I am very proud to be a Nebraskan every day, and especially so at this moment as we certify the 2020 Primary Election. Sincerely, Robert B.

Bishop and Rep. McMorris Rodgers: Executive Committee Henry Beck, ME As we celebrate the 30th Anniversary of the passage of the Americans with Disabilities Act David Damschen, UT Tim Eichenberg, NM (ADA), we can be proud of its positive impact on veterans with disabilities, while acknowledging Michael Frerichs, IL that there is much left to do. Dennis Milligan, AR Kelly Mitchell, IN The main purpose of the ADA is to provide people with disabilities equality of opportunity, full Shawn Wooden, CT participation in society, independent living, and economic self-sufficiency. But for more than two Executive Director decades after its passage, economic self-sufficiency was impossible for some. People with Shaun Snyder disabilities who need government benefits in order to live independently were blocked from saving 1201 Pennsylvania Ave, NW money. Without savings, economic self-sufficiency is unattainable. And without being able to Suite 800 fully participate in the economy, the other goals will not be fully realized. Washington, DC 20004 When the Achieving a Better Life Experience (ABLE) Act was passed into law in 2014, many www.NAST.org Americans with disabilities were empowered to save their own money to help pay for their disability expenses without fear of losing federal and state benefits. The Act was a meaningful step forward for people with disabilities. However, it came up short. After more than five years, and on the 30th birthday of the ADA, millions of Americans with disabilities, including veterans, still remain ineligible to open an ABLE account simply because they acquired their disability after they turned 26 years old.
