This bill amends several bills, with this bill amending the FEA to replace any mention of the House to mentioning at-large Senate seats, and the line of succession in the Federal Electoral Act shall be amended to only have the presiding officer of the Senate be on the line of succession. There are some other amendments to the Census Act, and the amendment to the Common Market allows for people who live in the United Kingdom to vote. Finally, I'd like to thank President Sestak for introducing this bill.

What's the deal with the special election vs multiple single transferable vote?

Is that the same as ranked choice voting?

Single Transferable Vote is the term for the method of multi-seat ranked choice system that we currently use for normal House elections.
