Me too election

Nebraska has a woman, Jane Raybould, running for the US SENATE against another woman, a would be rancher who is actually a previous resident of the same city, Lincoln. Omaha, Kansas City and other urban areas throughout the great plains have a record number of women running for state and city level offices.

There was a lot of activity in 2017 already, but this has lead to more concrete involvement in 2018, an election year. Trump will lose a lot of support. Kavanaugh and Trump himself have drawn enough attention to themselves, so this will also be a #metoo election. Women's rights, including reproductive rights (at stake with Kavanaugh appointment) will be more strongly supported than the traditional GOP "Jesus guns and babies" that we hear from the prairie.

Trump himself is in a bit of trouble, as there is no judicial candidate after Kavanaugh that he can pick who is going to be the same level of supporter of presidential autocratic rule. "You can't charge a sitting president with a crime" is what Kavaunaugh thinking amounts to.
