Relative to choosing presidential electors and the process which governs them. Election Laws.

AI Summary

This bill proposes changes to the process of choosing presidential electors in Massachusetts. It requires one presidential elector to be chosen from each congressional district, with two additional electors chosen statewide. The bill also specifies that each at-large elector must cast their ballot for the presidential and vice-presidential candidates who received the highest number of votes statewide, while each congressional district elector must cast their ballot for the candidates who received the most votes in their district. These changes would alter how Massachusetts allocates its Electoral College votes in presidential elections.
