Quick facts Nominee, Party ...

Nebraska was won by the Republican nominees, incumbent President William McKinley of Ohio and his running mate Theodore Roosevelt of New York. They defeated the Democratic nominees, former U.S. Representative, 1896 Democratic presidential nominee and Nebraska native William Jennings Bryan and his running mate, former Vice President Adlai Stevenson I. McKinley won the state by a narrow margin of 3.24% in this rematch of the 1896 presidential election. The return of economic prosperity and recent victory in the Spanish–American War helped McKinley to score a decisive victory.

Bryan had previously defeated McKinley in the state four years earlier and would later win it again against William Howard Taft in 1908.
