Nebraska GOP, other state parties file FEC complaint against Harris campaign
LINCOLN, Neb. (KLKN) — The Nebraska Republican Party filed a complaint Thursday against Vice President Kamala Harris’ presidential campaign.
The complaint with the Federal Election Commission alleges that it was illegal to transfer $96 million raised by President Joe Biden’s campaign to Harris’ campaign.
“There is no provision for any transfer of funds prior to a nomination of president, which Harris clearly does not have,” the party said in a press release.
The Nebraska GOP was joined in the action by 16 other state and territory parties and the conservative group Citizens United.
On Tuesday, former President Donald Trump’s campaign filed a similar complaint.
A spokesman for the Harris campaign told CNN that complaint was “baseless.”
The FEC said it does not comment on enforcement matters.
Nebraska women’s basketball landed a commitment from four-star 2027 center Addison Medeck. She was a prolific player for Papillion-La Vista South last season.
Medeck averaged 16.5 points, 12.2 rebounds and shot 59% from the field. She is the 37th-overall player nationally in her class, the 7th-overall center, and the top player in the state of Nebraska, according to the 247Sports Rankings.
Her only offer came from the Huskers and it came on the same day as her commitment. Now, Amy Williams and the coaching staff have locked up another in-state star.
This is the first commitment for the 2027 recruiting class. This gives Nebraska a solid starting point from which to build its class around. Williams and her staff will have a multifaceted player to work with over the next couple of seasons.

So, 6:15 kickoff, an average game length of just under 3 & 1/2 hrs (3:26 is the avg.) plus the 30 minute break to set up afterward (which might be generous) and we’re looking at the show starting at around 10:15 after the game.
So, thoughts on North Dakota post-game concert:
A) Yes, please, love it!
B) Pass on Cole Swindell, but open to the idea.
C) Nope nope, game day by itself is plenty.
Cheyenne County banned fireworks in rural areas while allowing communities to make their own decisions. Potter and Dalton both enacted local restrictions.
Potter adopted an ordinance June 22 banning fireworks within village limits and its 1-mile zoning jurisdiction. Violators face a $500 fine, increasing to $1,000 per discharge during a red flag warning.
Sidney, however, took a different approach, temporarily limiting fireworks between Wednesday and Sunday morning.
In Dawes County, fireworks remain banned, but the Mr. Fireworks display following Saturday’s Crawford rodeo received an exemption. Organizers said the show remains tentative depending on wind conditions and availability of the local fire department.
Regardless of local rules, Hohbein urged Nebraskans to pay attention to their environment.
“There are three things that are really dangerous for a wildland fire situation, and that’s hot, dry and windy. When those three conditions occur, any kind of fire can start easier, quicker, and then spread much faster,” Hohbein said.
If possible, he recommends leaving fireworks to the professionals.
While Hohbein has seen fewer public displays this year, many professional shows are becoming larger with bigger shells and additional safety measures, including dedicated safety officers and firefighters on site.
“With the hazardous conditions, let somebody else worry about those shooting off fireworks, and then just sit back and enjoy,” Hohbein said.
