 Plain-English summary Congressional Research Service
Amends Federal law to require a plurality (currently, a majority) of votes in elections for the Delegate representing American Samoa in the United States House of Representatives. Eliminates the requirement for runoff elections. Authorizes the legislature of American Samoa, if it provides for primary elections for the election of the Delegate, also to provide that the Delegate shall be elected by a majority of the votes cast in any general election for the office of Delegate for which such primary elections were held.
