The Heritage Foundation tracks laws like Nebraska’s on its Election Integrity Scorecard, which ranks all 50 states and the District of Columbia based on 48 criteria reflecting best practices for administering free and fair elections. Prior to this law, Nebraska ranked 41st with a total score of 47 out of 100 possible points—among the lowest scores in the nation.
