Nebraska’s top elections official, Secretary of State John Gale, is predicting healthy voter turnout of 56-percent in tomorrow’s (Tuesday) General Election. Gale says Nebraska has set a record of nearly one-point-two million voters registered.

From the governor’s office to members of Congress to ballot issues like Medicaid expansion, Gale says there are significant races and issues to decide and he urges voters not to get complacent.

Once the polls close tomorrow, the Secretary of State’s website will have unofficial results posted online at www.sos.ne.gov.
