Reps. Kiley Introduce the Election Results Accountability Act to Restore Public Trust in Federal ElectionsReps. Kiley, Obernolte, Calvert, Fong, Valadao & Issa Introduce the Election Results Accountability Act to Restore Public Trust in Federal ElectionsWASHINGTON – This week Representatives Kevin Kiley (R-CA), Jay Obernolte (R-CA), Ken Calvert (R-CA), Vince Fong (R-CA), David Valadao (R-CA) and Darrell Issa (R-CA) introduced the Election Results Accountability Act, legislation aimed at improving transparency and restoring trust in the democratic process by setting federal deadlines for ballot counting and certification of election results.
Additionally, it mandates that states complete the ballot count and certify the final results within two weeks of election day.
“Other states manage to complete election results faster and without incident- there’s no reason California can’t get this job done in a more timely manner.
Enough is enough.”“Having accurate and timely results for our elections is critical to strengthening the integrity and confidence in our democracy,” said Rep. Calvert.
The Election Results Accountability Act will apply to all federal elections held 90 days after enactment.
