Summary

Restoring American Confidence in Elections Act or the RACE Act

Full summary3 paragraphs

This bill establishes deadlines for states to count ballots and certify results in federal elections.

Specifically, the bill requires a state to finish counting the ballots cast in a federal election held in the state not later than 10:00 p.m. on the date of the election. Further, the state must certify the election results not later than 48 hours after the election.

The bill provides exceptions to these deadlines for bona fide emergencies (e.g., major disasters) or technical difficulties (e.g., malfunctioning election equipment or software).
