Talk:Nebraska's 2nd congressional district

Why?
Some advice for improving the article: why was the area near Omaha made into a separate district? History of this decision? Tezkag72 (talk) 01:54, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
 * Why are separate districts created anywhere in the country? Population. Nebraska's current three districts roughly apportion the state's population into three districts. Omaha being by far the state's largest city, it's no surprise that one district is centered on it. District 1 is larger, but still only a fraction of the state's land area, as it contains Lincoln, the capital and second largest city. District 3 encompasses the rest of the state, which is largely rural, with only a few towns over 5,000 people but hundreds of smaller towns.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.135.207.137 (talk) 05:17, 3 September 2009 (UTC)

District map is outdated
The southern half of district 2 was flipped after the census -- That is, the south east was given to district 1 and replaced by a chunk to the west from district 1. The map we have is no longer applicable. -- Bertrc (talk) 20:12, 22 January 2013 (UTC)
