Downside, though, is that it appears the sample was only 100 people (when you hover over the results on the page, it shows a secondary number that I'm assuming are people).

Doubtful.  The statewide sample was 800 voters.  So assuming they didn't oversample NE-02 to get a more statistically significant result (which is possible), the pollster should have sampled about 266 voters each of Nebraska's 3 CDs.  The MoE on that should be about +/-6.

Even that is well under the acceptable sample of 300.
