One Vote One Choice Act

Sponsored By: Representative Lawler, Michael [R-NY-17]

Introduced

Summary

Bans ranked choice voting in State-run federal elections. This bill inserts a new section into the Help America Vote Act that forbids any State from using a system where voters rank candidates for federal offices and makes that ban enforceable under HAVA.

Show full summary
  • Voters: People casting ballots in federal races cannot rank candidates and must use single-choice ballots for those contests.
  • States and election officials: States are barred from using ranked choice systems for elections for federal offices and must conduct those contests with other voting methods.
  • Enforcement: The prohibition is written into HAVA and is subject to the Act's enforcement provisions, so federal enforcement mechanisms apply to the ban.
