via Politics – FiveThirtyEight

We went into Election Day with a hypothesis: Most Americans would cast a straight-ticket ballot — with some notable exceptions, which we’ll address in a moment. And we decided a good way to test this was to look at statewide races most likely to drive turnout in a midterm election cycle: U.S. Senate and governor contests.

There were 22 states that had races for both the Senate and governor on the ballot this election cycle. And what we found was the same party swept both offices in 16 of the 21 states where each race has been called1, with Democrats capturing both races in 12 states and Republicans doing so in four. Or, in other words, our hypothesis was mostly right — most Americans did vote for the same party in their Senate and governors race. But there were five states — Arizona, Maryland, Massachusetts, Ohio and Vermont — where voters chose a Republican governor and a Democratic senator.

And while we were interested in what happened in these five states (more in a moment), we also wanted to look at every state that had both a Senate and governor race on the ballot to see just how far apart the voting margins were. The idea was this will help us understand how uncommon — or common — split-ticket voting was in 2018. And we could then situate what happened in 2018 by looking at previous midterms to see if there was a trend in how much split-ticket voting occurred between these two offices. (Spoiler: Split-ticket voting hit a new low.)

To do this, I calculated the difference between the margin of victory in the Senate and gubernatorial races for each state using the Democratic and Republican vote shares in each contest.2 And as the table below shows, Massachusetts had the biggest difference between its vote share margin in its races for Senate and governor. Republican Gov. Charlie Baker won reelection by about 32 percentage points and Democratic Sen. Elizabeth Warren garnered a second term with a roughly 26-point margin, producing a gap of 57 points. So, in other words, in hyper-blue Massachusetts roughly 25 to 30 percent of voters cast ballots for both Baker and Warren.3 Two other states, Vermont and Maryland, also had very large differences between their Senate and governor races — about 55 and 47 points, respectively. Along with Massachusetts, these races all featured relatively popular incumbent Republican governors — Phil Scott in Vermont and Larry Hogan in Maryland — running in strongly Democratic states that easily reelected incumbent Democratic senators. The popularity and independent streaks of these GOP governors clearly helped them overcome the sharply Democratic leans of their states.

Split ticket voting in statewide races is pretty rare

Difference between the size of the margin of victory in 2018 Senate and governor races

Senate Governor State Winner Incumb. Margin Winner Incumb. Margin Difference MA Warren ✓ +25.5 Baker ✓ +31.9 57.4 VT Sanders* ✓ +40.3 Scott ✓ +14.6 54.9 MD Cardin ✓ +33.4 Hogan ✓ +13.4 46.8 CT Murphy ✓ +20.2 Lamont +3.1 17 AZ Sinema ✓ +2.0 Ducey ✓ +14.4 16.5 HI Hirono ✓ +42.3 Ige ✓ +29.0 13.3 MN‡ Klobuchar ✓ +24.1 Walz +11.4 12.7 ME King* ✓ +19.0 Mills +7.6 11.5 TX Cruz ✓ +2.6 Abbott ✓ +13.3 10.7 NY Gillibrand ✓ +33.0 Cuomo ✓ +22.3 10.7 OH Brown ✓ +6.4 DeWine +4.2 10.6 TN Blackburn +10.8 Lee +21.1 10.2 WI Baldwin ✓ +10.9 Evers +1.1 9.7 NM Heinrich ✓ +23.5 Grisham +14.3 9.2 RI Whitehouse ✓ +23.0 Raimondo ✓ +15.5 7.6 PA Casey ✓ +12.8 Wolf ✓ +16.8 4 MI Stabenow ✓ +6.4 Whitmer +9.5 3 WY Barrasso ✓ +36.9 Gordon +39.8 2.9 NV Rosen +5.0 Sisolak +4.1 0.9 MN‡ Smith ✓ +10.6 Walz +11.4 0.8 NE Fischer ✓ +19.2 Ricketts ✓ +18.9 0.4

Election data as of 10 a.m. on Nov. 16, 2018. Only states with both a Senate and gubernatorial election that featured candidates from both major parties are included. This means California is excluded because no Republican candidate qualified for its Senate election. Florida is also not included because both its Senate and gubernatorial elections are still uncalled. Some data may not add up due to rounding.

*Vermont Sen. Bernie Sanders and Maine Sen. Angus King are included as Democrats because they caucus with the party in the Senate.

‡Minnesota is included twice because it had two Senate elections this year.

Source: ABC NEWS

But these three states were notable outliers — no other state had a difference between their Senate and governor races that was greater than 17 points. That said, these less divided contests can still show you where a stronger candidate for one party may have made a difference. Take Tennessee’s Senate race, for instance. Republican Rep. Marsha Blackburn defeated Democrat Phil Bredesen there, but Bredesen — a popular former governor — made the Senate contest notably closer than the gubernatorial election.

Incumbency may have been a factor, too. Both the Tennessee Senate and gubernatorial races were open seats, but in another GOP-leaning state like Ohio, there was one incumbent on the ballot, which might help explain why Ohioans elected a Democratic senator and a Republican governor. Incumbent Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown won his race by about 6 points and Republican Mike DeWine won the open-seat governor race by 4 points. Given that Ohio is 7 points to the right of the country, Brown probably benefited at least some from an incumbency advantage The two races ran relatively close together — the difference was 11 points — suggesting that most voters voted for the same party in both contests.

But we were also interested in what would happen if we took a step back and zoomed out, looking at other midterm cycles and split-ticket voting. How would 2018 compare? It turns out that 2018 is part of a trend that shows fewer Americans are splitting their tickets (at least in races for the Senate and governors in midterm elections). This election had the smallest median difference of any midterm cycle going back to at least 1990 — 10 points.4

As you can see, even though 2018 has the lowest mark in the past three decades, the median difference from election cycle to election cycle has bounced around. Still, the overall trend is one of decline, at least since 1998. You might wonder why there are fairly regular ups and downs in the chart, but this can be explained by the number of elected governors running for re-election in each cycle.

For example, only eight incumbent governors ran in the 24 states included in my calculations for 2010, whereas in the 2014 cycle there were 16 states with incumbent governors. And what I found was cycles with fewer incumbent governors running tended to show less evidence of split-ticket voting (a lower median) while cycles with more incumbents demonstrated more evidence of split-ticket voting (a slightly higher median). Part of this is because governors often benefit from an incumbency advantage. As my colleague Nate Silver pointed out in his introduction to FiveThirtyEight’s governor forecast, partisanship explains less in gubernatorial elections than it does in federal contests, and therefore, incumbency might matter slightly more for governors than it does in either the House or Senate.

No matter which way you cut it, the difference between the margins in a state’s gubernatorial and Senate races has shrunk. More voters are casting straight-ticket ballots. There are exceptions, of course, but this shift matches what we know about the larger electoral picture: voters are more partisan and the country is more divided than it’s ever been in the modern era of U.S. politics.

https://www.patreon.com/marijuanamoment / TOP THINGS TO KNOW Four state attorneys general and a broader group of law enforcement professionals are calling on Congress to pass a marijuana legalization bill next month. Plus, a new poll shows majority voter support for the proposal to deschedule cannabis and fund programs to repair the harms of the war on drugs—even from Republicans.

“As front-line public safety experts, we believe that responsible regulation and control of marijuana will be more beneficial to society than prohibiting and criminalizing it.”

The U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit rejected the Drug Enforcement Administration’s  motion to dismiss a lawsuit challenging its marijuana scheduling decisions A joint committee of Vermont House and Senate lawmakers met to negotiate differences between versions of a bill to legalize marijuana sales. They want to finish it this month, but a heated dispute about the unrelated issue of seat belts could upend the whole plan. A Texas judge temporarily lifted a ban that regulators had imposed on selling smokable hemp products. The broader case challenging the prohibition is still being considered. The U.S. Department of Agriculture is asking six states to revise and resubmit their hemp regulatory plans for federal approval. / FEDERAL A federal judge ruled that a man awaiting sentencing in a drug case can’t be deemed a career criminal offender because federal and state marijuana laws are no longer sufficiently in sync. Rep. Matt Gaetz (R-FL) tweeted, “Delays in approving grower applications for the manufacturing of research-grade marijuana have had potentially detrimental effects on Americans’ health. The DEA should move now to review applications for additional manufacturing licenses.” Marijuana has become an issue in another Massachusetts Democratic congressional primary. / STATES Nebraska Gov. Pete Ricketts (R) authored a column arguing that marijuana reform causes workplace issues. An Arizona Supreme Court justice who campaigned against a 2016 marijuana legalization measure is refusing calls to recuse himself from a case concerning ballot language for a current legal cannabis initiative. New York regulators said they will not submit a hemp plan for federal approval, calling the U.S. Department of Agriculture’s rules “unrealistic.” Florida regulators announced the recall of medical cannabis products contaminated with mold. Oklahoma regulators are being sued over medical cannabis business ownership residency requirements. Michigan regulators put a stop to a plan for a marijuana dispensary to deliver products to customers at a sports bar. The Virginia Marijuana Legalization Work Group’s Health Impacts Subgroup met. California’s Cannabis Advisory Committee will meet on Thursday and Friday.

NATE Statement on Passage of Nebraska Small Cell Deployment Legislation

May 17, 2019                                                                                                    

(Watertown, SD.) - The National Association of Tower Erectors (NATE) today released the following statement on Nebraska’s Small Wireless Facilities Deployment Act being signed into law by Governor Pete Ricketts.

“On behalf of NATE’s 12 member companies in Nebraska, the Association applauds Governor Ricketts and members of the Nebraska State Senate for getting this important legislation across the finish line,” stated NATE Wireless Industry Network Director Scott Krouse. “NATE’s Wireless Industry Network worked with the Association’s members in Nebraska at the grassroots level to urge lawmakers to support this bill.

Nebraska doesn’t allow commercial casinos. That may change in 2020

LINCOLN, Neb. — Nebraska voters may decide next year whether to legalize casino gambling in a ballot measure that could tip the number of states that allow commercial gambling into the majority.

Supporters of legalized casinos have launched a petition drive to place the issue on the 2020 ballot with financial backing from the economic development corporation owned by the Winnebago Tribe of Nebraska.

Twenty-five states — including neighboring Colorado, Iowa, Kansas, Missouri, and South Dakota — allow commercial casino gambling with games such as slot machines, craps and roulette wheels, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures. Iowa casinos near Omaha, in particular, cater to Nebraska residents looking to gamble.

“Hundreds of millions of dollars go across the border every year,” said Lance Morgan, the CEO of Ho-Chunk Inc., the corporation pushing the measure on the tribe’s behalf. “For a Nebraskan to do gaming, you have to go half a mile. It’s the height of paternalism to try to try to restrict it.”

Morgan said he’s confident, based on the group’s internal polling, that voters will approve the measure if it appears on the ballot.

Only two states, Hawaii and Utah, have a complete ban on gambling. Nebraska is among states that allow Native American tribal casinos that are limited to bingo and card games where the house has no stake in the outcome, such as poker. Nebraska also offers keno, horse racing and a lottery. Commercial casinos, by contrast, have slot machines, craps, roulette wheels and card games such as blackjack.

The measure is certain to face opposition from leading conservatives, including Republican Gov. Pete Ricketts and former University of Nebraska football coach and athletic director Tom Osborne.

“Casinos are bad for families and bad for business,” said Nate Grasz, policy director for the Nebraska Family Alliance, a conservative policy group that plans to fight the measure. “All men and women deserve an opportunity to build the best lives for themselves, and state-sanctioned gambling robs them of that opportunity.”

Gambling opponents successfully defeated ballot measures in 2004 and 2006, despite being outspent by wealthy casino interests. In 2014, they challenged a gambling measure in court and persuaded the Nebraska Supreme Court to declare it unconstitutional, striking it from the ballot.

But some gambling opponents acknowledge public support has grown in recent years.

“It’s going to be hard,” said Pat Loontjer, executive director of Gambling with the Good Life. “We’ve been doing this for 24 years, and, well, the atmosphere in the state has changed.”

Supporters said they’ve changed the ballot measure to withstand a court challenge. The latest campaign will require three petitions — a constitutional amendment to allow casino gambling at state-licensed horse racing tracks and two state law changes to regulate and tax the industry. The state Supreme Court rejected a previous measure because it merged those issues onto one ballot, forcing voters to give one yes-or-no answer to multiple questions.

“We’ve learned from our mistakes in the past,” said Bob Moser, president of the Nebraska Horsemen’s Benevolent and Protective Association. “We have a really good plan and great partners, and we’re very optimistic about our chances this time.”

Moser said allowing casinos at state-licensed horse racing tracks would increase purse sizes and make horse races larger and more competitive, and thus revive the struggling industry.

A similar effort failed to gain enough signatures in 2016, but independent observers blame poor management, not a lack of support. The company that managed that petition drive claimed to have collected more than enough signatures, but nearly 42,000 were later declared invalid. The company now faces a lawsuit over the petition drive.

Nebraska slowly rolls out voter-approved Medicaid expansion

Marti Poll knows she should see a doctor. Sometimes she has a severe tightness in her chest. She also has chronic sinus and ear infections.

But she can’t afford the medical bills, so she simply waits and hopes the pain will subside.

She thought her wait might end soon after voters approved a Medicaid expansion that would allow people like her who earn too much money to qualify for the health care program but who can’t afford to buy insurance on their own. But more than seven months later, Poll and some 90,000 other Nebraska residents who could qualify are still waiting — and will be for 15 more months as Republican Gov. Pete Ricketts’ administration says it’s working to ensure the smooth implementation of an expansion that voters passed despite his objections.

“I think this would help a lot of people,” said Poll, 55, who lives outside Lincoln and works as an office assistant and janitor. “Are they just looking to do it right, or are they obfuscating? That’s the question I have.”

Some of the skepticism stems from Republicans’ long objections to expanding Medicaid under the federal health care law championed by Democratic former President Barack Obama. Medicaid, which provides health coverage for lower-income and disabled Americans, is funded jointly by states and the federal government. The 2010 Affordable Care Act encouraged states to expand Medicaid by promising that the federal government would cover most of the cost.

Nebraska was among several conservative states that declined to expand Medicaid, as first Gov. Dave Heineman and then Ricketts argued it would cost too much and overwhelm the health care system. It was one of three states with Republican-controlled legislatures where voters last year approved an expansion. In Utah, lawmakers cut nearly in half the number of people who would be covered and added spending caps and work requirements, angering advocates. Idaho lawmakers also imposed work requirements and other restrictions.

In Nebraska, Ricketts has promised to abide by voters’ wishes, and the Legislature did not pass any changes to the voter-approved measure. But Ricketts’ administration decided unilaterally to implement a two-tiered program: a “basic” plan available to all newly qualified recipients, and a “premium” plan available to people who are working, in school, volunteering or caring for a relative.

State Sen. John McCollister said the Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services created a needlessly complex system that he believes runs contrary to the will of voters. McCollister said a straightforward expansion likely would have been easier and allowed people to get coverage sooner.

“They’re grudgingly implementing the policy — and I think ‘grudgingly’ is the operative word,” said McCollister, a moderate Republican from Omaha.

Advocates have noted that similar expansions took less than six months in Louisiana and Virginia and less than two months in Alaska. Expansion took longer in Maine, primarily because of opposition from elected officials.

Nebraska Department of Health and Human Services officials have defended the October 2020 launch date and their two-tiered approach, calling the expansion plan a massive undertaking that shouldn’t be rushed. They note some changes still need federal approval. Other challenges include that the state needs to upgrade its computer system for processing applicants; hire more workers; and negotiate new contracts with the private, managed-care companies that will serve Medicaid recipients, officials say. They also say the state needs more doctors who accept Medicaid patients.

“We completely understand and are very sympathetic to the situation,” said Nate Watson, a deputy director for Nebraska’s Medicaid and Long-Term Care Division. “We get it. What we’re worried about is what other states have experienced. We could expand quickly and people would get a shiny new card in the mail, but if there aren’t doctors in their area or the types of doctors that they need, what good does that do anybody?”

Coverage would be available to adults ages 19 to 64 who earn up to 138% of the federal poverty level — about $16,753 per year. The federal government must pay 90% of the program’s cost in 2020 and subsequent years.

The Nebraska Hospital Association, which supported the ballot measure, has accepted the state’s timeline.

“I don’t know if they can go any faster, given what they’re trying to do,” said Andy Hale, a lobbyist for the group. “They’re trying to do what they think is best.”

However, Jordan Rasmussen, policy manager for the Nebraska-based Center for Rural Affairs, noted that the state is losing out on millions in federal funding while setting up the program.

“The delay is hurting Nebraska,” she said. “We’re missing out and our people aren’t getting the care they need.”
