Lawmakers propose Pennsylvania voting reform to end dead man's vote
Harrisburg lawmakers plan a constitutional amendment to let bills pass with half of the members present. The measure, co sponsored by Robert J. Butera and Herbert Fineman, would replace the 102 26 vote requirement with a simple majority of those present. If 180 House members attend, 90 votes would suffice. The proposal aims to curb absence and illness gaming the system and create a more responsible legislature.
