The 2000 United States presidential election in Nebraska took place on November 7, 2000, and was part of the 2000 United States presidential election. Voters chose five representatives, or electors to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.
Nebraska was won by Governor George W. Bush by a 29% margin of victory, winning every county. Also, with 62.25% of the popular vote, the state proved to be his fourth strongest state in the 2000 election after Wyoming, Idaho and Utah.[1] As of the 2020 presidential election, this is the last time the Democratic ticket did not win a single county in Nebraska.
