A WIN for NORTH PLATTE
 
THANK YOU for your support during the Quality Growth Fund / North Platte Economic Development Plan Renewal process the past few months. We came out swinging and managed a 3:1 margin victory we can be very proud of. This sends a clear message to developers that North Platte is ready to grow. I am excited for what this means for our future.

Lincoln County sees record turnout for election
Todd von Kampen | North Platte Telegraph
 
If you’re a Lincoln County voter wondering why Tuesday’s election-night results were so late, well, look in the mirror.
For the very best of reasons.
County voters set an all-time numerical turnout record in the general election that climaxed Tuesday, with at least 17,142 casting ballots in unofficial returns.
The previous record was set in the 2016 general election, when 16,330 registered voters cast ballots. A total of 12,660 voted in the off-year 2018 election.
Tuesday’s total translated into a 70.5% turnout among the county’s 24,311 registered voters, the highest by percentage since a record 77.99% cast ballots in November 1992.
