Modifies provisions for the election of President and Vice President of the United States

HB 3218 modifies Missouri's ballot formatting and vote-counting procedures for presidential and vice-presidential elections. It requires candidates' names to appear enclosed in brackets on ballots, with votes for presidential candidates automatically counted as votes for their designated electors. The bill specifies detailed instructions for election judges to tally votes, including recording votes for electors based on the associated presidential ticket. This is a procedural change affecting ballot design and vote counting, not the method of electing the president or vice president.
