 Introduced by M. of A. MOLITOR -- read once and referred to the Commit-
 tee on Election Law

 AN ACT to amend the election law, in relation to requiring electors to

 representing the plurality of votes in each congressional district

 The People of the State of New York, represented in Senate and Assem-
 bly, do enact as follows:

 1 Section 1. Section 12-106 of the election law, as amended by chapter
 2 215 of the laws of 2024, is amended to read as follows:
 3 § 12-106. Electoral college; vote of the electors. Immediately after
 4 the organization of the electoral college, the electors shall then and
 5 there vote by ballot for president and vice president, but no elector
 6 shall vote for more than one person who is a resident of this state.
 7 Two electoral votes shall be given to the statewide winner and one elec-
 8 toral vote shall be given to each congressional district based on the
 9 plurality of votes in such district. They shall name in separate ballots
 10 the persons voted for as president and vice president. They shall make
 11 and sign six certificates of vote of all the votes given by them, each
 12 of which certificates shall contain two distinct lists, one with the
 13 votes for president and one with the votes for vice president. There
 14 shall be annexed to each of the certificates of vote one of the lists of
 15 electors which shall have been furnished to them by the state board of
 16 elections pursuant to section 12-102 of this title. They shall seal up
 17 the certificates of vote so made and certify upon each that the lists of
 18 all the votes of this state given for president and vice president are
 19 contained therein.
 20 Notwithstanding any other section of law besides title four of this
 21 article, each elector shall cast [his or her] such elector's ballot for
 22 president and vice president for the candidates for these offices who
 23 were nominated by the political party that nominated the presidential
 24 elector. Refusal or failure to vote for the candidates for president and

 1 vice president who were nominated by the political party that nominated
 2 the presidential elector shall constitute a resignation from the office
 3 of elector, and any such vote by an elector shall not be recorded. The
 4 ballots used by the elector shall bear the name of the elector. The
 5 remaining electors shall forthwith fill the vacancy in accordance with
 6 section 12-104 of this title. Nothing in this subdivision shall be
 7 interpreted as modifying or repealing title four of this article, the
 8 agreement among the states to elect the president by national popular
 9 vote.
 10 § 2. This act shall take effect immediately and shall apply to all
 11 electors for all elections occurring on and after such date.
