The 1940 United States presidential election in Nebraska took place on November 5, 1940, as part of the 1940 United States presidential election. Nebraska voters chose seven[2] representatives, or electors, to the Electoral College, who voted for president and vice president.
Nebraska was won by Wendell Willkie (R–Indiana), running with Minority Leader Charles L. McNary, with 57.19% of the popular vote, against incumbent President Franklin D. Roosevelt (D–New York), running with Secretary Henry A. Wallace, with 42.81% of the popular vote.[3][4]
With 57.19% of the popular vote, Nebraska would prove to be Willkie's second strongest state in the 1940 election in terms of popular vote percentage after neighboring South Dakota[5].
