Petitions and certifications of persons nominated as presidential electors and alternate presidential electors required to include a certification attesting to the eligibility of the candidates for president and vice president to be elected to office.

Summary

The bill adds a sworn statement to petitions nominating presidential electors and alternates, confirming that the presidential and vice‑presidential candidates satisfy constitutional eligibility, including the age and term‑limit rules. It also obligates major‑party chairs to certify the same under oath and prevents the secretary of state from placing ineligible candidates on the ballot or allowing their electors to be elected. The measure aims to ensure only eligible candidates appear on Minnesota’s presidential ballot.
