NH Bill on Electoral College


Three New Hampshire Republican Legislators will introduced HB 231, which would provide that each of the State’s two U.S. House Districts would elect their own Presidential Elector.

David Murotake (R), Matthew Spencer (R), and J. Tracy Emerick (R) HB 231 will be introduced 1/4/2017 and id due out of the Election Law Committee on 3/2/2017.

The bill wording:

This bill apportions the State’s Presidential Electors so that 2 At-Large Presidential Electors shall cast their ballots for the Presidential and Vice-Presidential candidates who received the highest number of votes in the State, and Congressional District Presidential Electors shall cast their ballots for the Presidential and Vice-Presidential candidates who received the highest number of votes in their respective Congressional Districts.

This act shall take effect 60 days after its passage.

New Hampshire’s State Senate will create a new Committee just for election Law bills, because there are so many Election Law bills in the upcoming 2017 Session. The New Hampshire already has an Election Law Committee.
