WAYS TO REGISTER TO VOTE
Voters should re-register to vote every time they move, change their name, or wish to change their political party affiliation. If you do not re-register to vote, you may need to vote a Provisional Ballot at the polling site, which may increase the time it takes to vote.
If you have a Nebraska Drivers License or State ID card click the link below to be taken to the State Online Voter Registration website.

IT HAPPENED IN SPRINGFIELD HISTORY
August Glesmann fills his Hart Parr tractor with water.
August Glesmann's threshing crew: Chris Glesmann, John Baley, Harry Beck, Carl Glesmann. Old milk cans held water for the steam engine. Horse and machine power were used.
Harvest crew came in for lunch
It’s harvest season. Harvest season long ago was made easier in the late 1920’s and early 1930’s when machine powered tractors became more affordable for farmers. Springfield area farmer, August Glesmann, purchased a Hart Parr gas or kerosene powered tractor to work his fields and neighboring fields. Farmers all shared the load at harvest time by helping each other since no one could afford to employ help.
