This was the first gubernatorial election in Nebraska where the winning primary candidates chose their running mates after the primary election. Prior to this, both the governor and the lieutenant governor were chosen at the primary election.[1] This was also the first gubernatorial election in which a Republican was re-elected in more than forty years.[2]
