Nebraska’s Lincoln County Republican Party Votes Unanimously to Ben Sasse

02/09/2021

Nebraska's Lincoln County Republican Party on Sunday voted to censure Sen. Ben Sasse (R-NE), one of the U.S. Senate's most vocal critics of former President Donald Trump.

Lincoln County Republican Party's 32 members voted unanimously for the measure, said chairwoman Carol Friesen. In the resolution, Sasse is accused of dismissing the legitimate concerns regarding allegations of voter fraud in the 2020 presidential election. The resolution also takes aim at Sasse for his conduct toward Trump, saying he failed to "respect the high office of the President of the United States."

Additionally, Sasse is criticized for "statements inciting radical proposals and retributions against law-abiding elected senators," such as referring to Sens. Josh Hawley (R-MO) and Ted Cruz (R-TX) - both upper chamber Republicans who challenged the certification of the electoral college in favor of President Joe Biden, in order to spark a debate and bring attention to the American people's concerns about the election.
