Supreme Court Oral Argument in Chiafalo v. Washington
1 hour, 16 minutesIn a unanimous ruling, the Supreme Court ruled that a state can require an elector to vote for the presidential candidate who won that state's popular vote and if that elector does not do so that person can be penalized. Justice Elena Kagan authored the majority opinion for the court. The justices heard oral argument for Chiafalo v. Washington via teleconference due to the coronavirus pandemic in May 2020. In 2016, Peter Chiafalo served as an elector. While Hillary Clinton won the popular vote in the state, Mr. Chiafalo and two other electors cast their Electoral College ballots for Colin Powell. This vote resulted in a $1,000 fine for each of them. Washington law requires electors to vote for the person who won the state's popular vote. Mr. Chiafalo and the electors filed suit challenging the law. This ruling also applies to a similar case, Colorado Department of State v. Baca.
