Well, March Madness is finally over. And just like every other year, none of my teams made it to the Final Four.

Unless it’s Creighton or Nebraska, I don’t follow college basketball all that closely.

At bracket time, I’m not really informed. If I pick any team that’s a five seed or lower, I’ll make my choice based on a hunch or if I like the name.

And just like every other year, Gonzaga has let me down.

I wonder how much the Democrats trust the voters in places like Grand Island, Scottsbluff, or Hastings. How much do they trust them to elect a Democrat to the Unicameral or a Republican who has the courage to stand up to Governor Pillen and will work to protect the so-called blue dot?

For that matter, how much do they trust Nebraska voters to elect Lynne Walz for Governor?

Because John Cavanaugh’s quest to win the Democratic nomination for the Second Congressional District hinges on the trust of Democratic and Independent voters for those out state areas to do just that.

President Trump and many Republicans are so concerned with undocumented people voting that they want to make it harder for the rest of us who are eligible to vote to be able to cast a ballot.

If passed the Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act, more commonly called the SAVE Act, were to be passed, you would have to prove you are an American citizen before you could register to vote.

I am the product of a Catholic School education with a little bit of a Public School experience thrown in. I went to Benson when we moved to Omaha my junior year of High School. Prior to that, I spent ten years in Parochial schools. Next to my parents, Sister Marlene had the biggest influence on my young life. (The Beatles were the third biggest influence, but I digress.)
