Relating to: the nomination of presidential electors.

AB 149 (Wisconsin Act 47) requires political parties in Wisconsin to formally nominate presidential electors when they lack a primary candidate for state legislative offices or state officers. Specifically, if a party has no nominee for the state Senate, Assembly, or state officer by October 1st before a presidential election, the party chair must nominate one elector per congressional district and two statewide electors. This replaces the previous requirement for a party convention in such cases and mandates written certification of nominees to the election commission. The bill directly affects Wisconsin political parties that fail to secure primary candidates for state offices in presidential election years.
