  + stars: | 2024-04-03 | by ( Daniel Strauss | Jeff Zeleny | ) edition.cnn.com   time to read: +6 min
CNN —Former President Donald Trump and his allies have ramped up pressure for Nebraska lawmakers to change the method the state divvies out electoral college votes, an effort that underscores just how narrow the race for 270 electoral votes could be in the November rematch with President Joe Biden.

For weeks, the Biden campaign has had its eye on Omaha and its one electoral vote.

The 2020 census changed the map based on decreasing populations in Pennsylvania and Michigan, so one of Nebraska’s three electoral votes could become critical should there be a 269-269 tie with Trump.
