Democrats formally nominated Illinois Sen. Barack Obama as the party's nominee for president Wednesday night at the Democratic National Convention in Denver.
They did that with a state-by-state roll call. Here's a portion of Nebraska's presentation.
“Home of that statesman, great statesman William Jennings Bryan, who received the Democratic nomination for president here in Denver exactly 100 years ago,” said Nebraska Sen. Ben Nelson.
“Home of the Cornhuskers who unite all of Nebraskans, Democrats, Republicans, Independents on game day Saturdays, proudly casts three votes for Sen. Clinton and 28 votes for the next president of the United States, Barack Obama!"
