Bill overview
The Election Results Accountability Act aims to ensure timely and transparent election results by establishing deadlines for states to count ballots and certify election outcomes. Specifically, states must count at least 90% of ballots within 72 hours of polls closing and certify the complete results within two weeks. The bill includes exceptions for emergencies, technical difficulties, and recounts, and it threatens to withhold federal election administration funds from states that fail to meet these deadlines. States can regain eligibility for these funds by submitting a compliance plan and receiving certification from the Election Assistance Commission and the Department of Justice.
