The Presidential Election Reform Act

August 21, 2007

 


This initiative alters existing procedures for selection of presidential electors by requiring that political parties nominate an elector in each congressional district and two electors on a statewide basis. The elector of the political party which receives the highest number of votes in each congressional district would be certified as the state's presidential elector of that district. Similarly, the two electors of the political party which receives the plurality of statewide votes would be certified as the statewide electors. This initiative also eliminates the authorization for compensation to electors or reimbursement of their travel expenses.
