Electoral college bill passes Senate
A bill requiring members of the Electoral College to follow the popular vote when submitting their presidential ballot passed the Senate 16-3 with two absent.
The bill is meant to ensure the will of Delaware voters is faithfully honored when the Electoral College convenes every four years to decide the outcome of presidential elections.
SB 57 would specifically adopt the Uniform Faithful Presidential Electors Act – model legislation passed in at least eight other states to prevent rogue electors from usurping the popular vote.
Under the bill, electors would be required to sign a pledge to mark their ballots in accordance with the popular vote. Any attempt by an elector to submit a vote in violation of that pledge would effectively constitute a resignation, and begin a process to replace that elector.
SB 57 now heads to a House committee for consideration.
