Johnson seeks two constitutional amendments on disability and Electoral College
President Johnson urged Congress to approve at once two constitutional amendments. The first would grant the vice president clear power to act as acting president during presidential incapacity and set procedures for succession. The second would abolish the Electoral College, allowing voters to directly choose the president and vice president. Johnson also submitted a suggested amendment to fill a vice presidency vacancy. The proposals require two thirds in Congress and ratification by three fourths of state legislatures.
