The Presidential Election Reform Act (H.R. 8873) would help prevent another attempted coup following a Presidential election by ensuring that the electoral votes tallied by Congress accurately reflect each state’s public vote for President. It makes clear that the Vice President does not have the power to accept or reject disputes over electors and that state legislatures cannot override the popular vote in their states.
