AN ACT PROPORTIONATELY ALLOCATING THE STATE'S ELECTORAL COLLEGE VOTES FOR PRESIDENT AND VICE PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES.
HB 6005 would change how the state allocates its electoral college votes for president and vice president. Instead of awarding all votes to the candidate who wins the statewide popular vote (the current "winner-takes-all" system), it would divide the votes proportionally based on each candidate's share of the total statewide vote. This directly affects how the state's presidential electors are selected and counted in the Electoral College. The bill, introduced by Rep. Bolinsky, is pending review by the Government Administration and Elections Committee.
