On this episode: Nebraska is the only state with a unicameral, nonpartisan legislature—and it's creating some fascinating political dynamics. Former state Senator Laura Ebke joins us to break down how nonpartisan voter registration is skyrocketing while Democratic registration plummets, with nonpartisans potentially outnumbering Democrats in the next election cycle. She explains why people temporarily switch party registration before primaries, what happens when your state capitol has an unused second chamber, and how Republican registration has held steady around 47-49% despite the shifts. From George Norris's tire-wearing campaign in the 1930s to today's generational realignment, discover why Nebraska's 90-year experiment might preview America's political future.Check out some of The Platte Institute’s work: https://platteinstitute.org/people/laura-ebke/ Learn more about politics in the cornhusker state: https://ballotpedia.org/Nebraska Complete a brief 5 minute survey to review the show and share some feedback: https://forms.gle/zPxYSog5civyvEKX6 Sign up for our Newsletters: https://ballotpedia.org/Ballotpedia_Email_Updates Stream "On the Ballot" on Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts.
