Introduced Text

Illinois SB2224 amends the state's Election Code to change the method of choosing presidential electors.

Illinois SB2224 modifies the process for selecting presidential electors in the state. It mandates that electors for President and Vice President be chosen by congressional district. Each district's electors will vote for the presidential and vice-presidential candidates who received the most votes statewide. Additionally, two electors at large will vote for the statewide highest vote-getters. The bill specifies that voting for a party's list of electors is not a direct vote for the presidential candidates but for the entire list of electors chosen by that party.
