This bill amends several sections of the Nebraska Revised Statutes concerning the selection and appointment of presidential electors. Notably, it changes the number of presidential electors selected at state conventions from one per congressional district and two at-large to five total electors, with the specific method of selection being updated from "chosen" to "selected." Additionally, the bill clarifies the process for the Governor to notify and appoint presidential electors, including the requirement for a security feature on the certificate of ascertainment to verify authenticity.

Furthermore, the bill modifies the voting process for presidential electors, removing specific references to at-large and congressional district electors in the context of how they should mark their ballots. Instead, it emphasizes that all electors must vote for the candidates who received the highest number of votes in the state, aligning their actions with their pledges. The bill also repeals the original sections that are being amended, streamlining the legal framework governing presidential electors in Nebraska.
