On a Friday, a new bill was introduced in the United States Congress with the aim of ensuring that presidential ballots maintain their integrity.

New law… If any state in our Union blocks the official nominee of a major political party from the Presidential ballot, their electoral slate will not be counted by Congress on the following January 6th.

Known as the Presidential Ballot Integrity Act, the bill was introduced by Representative Clay Higgins from Louisiana. It proposes an amendment to Title 3 of the United States Code, specifically focusing on the Electoral Count Act of 1887.

The Electoral Count Act of 1887 is a significant federal law in the United States that outlines procedures for the counting of electoral votes and resolution of disputes. The act specifies how the Senate and House of Representatives count electoral votes to confirm the President and Vice President following an election.

The heart of the Presidential Ballot Integrity Act is the provision that electoral votes from any state failing to include a candidate nominated by a major political party on its presidential ballot would not be counted. This addition is meant to ensure that all major political party nominees are represented on ballots in every state, thus protecting the integrity of the electoral process.

The proposed bill states, “To amend title 3, United States Code, to include under the Electoral Count Act of 1887 that the vote of an elector of a state shall not be counted if, with respect to the election for President, the state did not include on the ballot in the state a candidate for President who was nominated by a major political party, and for other purposes.”

Rep. Higgins expressed his support for the bill in a post, stating, “If any state in our country excludes the official nominee of a major political party from the presidential ballot, their electoral votes will not be counted by Congress on January 6th.”

This bill seeks to establish that the votes of electors from states that exclude nominated candidates from major political parties would be rendered invalid.

This legislative effort is a response to an unconstitutional ruling made by the Colorado Supreme Court, which disqualified President Trump from the ballot in Colorado in 2024. The court based its decision on Section 3 of the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution, which allows for the disqualification of public officials who have engaged in insurrection or rebellion against the United States.

It is important to note that this is not the end of President Trump’s ballot challenges, as other states have pending legal cases claiming his ineligibility for office under the 14th Amendment.
