Support ensuring electors follow the popular vote
Support electors voting for the candidate who got the most votes.
Support electors voting for the candidate who got the most votes.
The Virginia Civic Engagement Table is a nonpartisan voting rights and civic engagement 501(c)(3) organization based in Richmond, VA. It anchors the Virginia Election Protection Coalition, the Commonwealth’s largest nonpartisan pro-voter coalition that works year-round to advance the freedom to vote. HB111 is a needed measure to strengthen our electoral system and defend against bad-faith efforts to overturn the voice of Virginia’s voters. We support its passage.
The League of Women Voters considers HB 111 to be essential. We need a Code chapter prescribing the processes and requirements for selecting and, if necessary, replacing electors for president and vice president of the United States, as well as setting forth their duties. .
