HB 114 West Virginia House of Delegates · 2024 First Special Session

Relating to political party nomination of presidential electors

This bill amends West Virginia law to clarify how political parties must nominate candidates for presidential electors. It establishes that parties must follow their own rules, but if those rules are missing, a state convention must be held between June and August to select these candidates. The law details how delegates are chosen from county mass meetings and outlines procedures for filling vacancies and resolving disputes over delegate selection. Additionally, it specifies that while party platforms can be created at these conventions, the names of presidential elector candidates will not appear on the regular general election ballot.
