Joint resolution to provide for a Joint Assembly to receive the report of the committee appointed to canvass votes for state officers

This procedural joint resolution (JRS 2) schedules a joint meeting of Vermont's Senate and House of Representatives on January 9, 2025, at 10 a.m. to receive the report from the committee that canvassed votes for state officers. It directly affects the legislative body and the canvassing committee, requiring them to convene to review election results for Governor, Lieutenant Governor, State Treasurer, Secretary of State, Auditor of Accounts, and Attorney General. If the committee finds no valid election for any of these offices, the joint assembly would immediately proceed to elect the unchosen officers. The resolution is purely procedural with no policy changes, having been adopted by both chambers on January 8, 2025.
