Congressional Election 2016
depserv:
Since it is a virtual certainty that Nebraska will support Trump in the coming election it looks to me like the most important thing on the ballot is probably the Congressional election, especially in the 2nd district (Omaha etc.). Last time the voters made the stupid mistake of electing a hard core America-hating liberal bigot named Brad Ashford. If there is a way to disarm law-abiding citizens he will be 100% behind it. And if he remains in the House long his fellow traitors have a shot at getting him into the Senate. So he is a very real threat to the security of a free state, and it is the duty of all patriots to do what we can to get him replaced by a loyal American.
His opponent, Don Bacon, appears to be a loyal American, who will defend our freedoms, including the right to keep and bear arms. He has an Aq rating from NRA/PVF, which means the A rating is based solely on answers he gave to their questions.
Is NFOA doing anything to get the traitor Ashford replaced by the loyal American running against him? What can we as individuals do to help?
Also, I would urge all members to look closely at your state legislative race (if there is one). According to Ballotpedia, our legislature is made up of 35 Republicans, 12 Democrats, and one Libertarian (though they are officially nonpartisan). With that ratio plus a Republican governor, why have we not been able to get some of the illegal gun control edicts removed? This question should be asked of all who ask for our vote.
We either stand now or crawl later. I hope every one of our members does everything in his power to get traitors replaced by loyal Americans in all elected positions.

Were you at the annual meeting? Don Bacon spoke to the members.
Since Federal Tax Code prohibits the Nebraska Firearms Owners Association, a registered 501(c)4 non-profit organization, from participating in elections, supporting pro-gun candidates, and defeating anti-gun liberal candidates the NFOA Political Action Fund was formed http://nfoapaf.org/

My rep in District 20 is John McCollister. A second-generation politico.
According to Omaha KFAB 1110 commentator Scott Voorhies, "...John McCollister ran to the right of Attila the Hun during his election campaign."
On that basis, after some personal conversations with him on his positions, I did some doorbell-ringing, phone-calling, and pamphleteering on his behalf. Helped get him elected, in my own small way.
Since then he has voted pretty much to the left of Ernie Chambers, Brad Ashford, Hillary Clinton, yada-yada-yada.
Geez........Can You Ever Imagine That??!!!
Another Lefty Stealth Campaigner.

That's a pretty serious betrayal. Anyone who would commit treason by supporting gun control or stand with Ernie Chambers on about anything is either a sycophant and fool or a traitor. As the saying goes, all's fair in war. I guess it shouldn't be any surprise that such a person would use the common tactic of pretending to be something he's not, like an enemy sniper pretending to be the grass he's crawling through. This level of betrayal suggests to me that maybe those of us who talk to political candidates get their statements on video so they can be compared later to their record. By the way, does Nebraska have a mechanism for recalling liars like the one you described? if not, can we get something on a ballot that would create such a mechanism?
