Stany Zjednoczone Ameryki: Wyrok Sądu Najwyższego Stanów Zjednoczonych z dnia 6 lipca 2020 r. w sprawie Peter B. Chiafalo, Levi Jennet Guerra i Esther Virginia John vs. stan Waszyngton
United States of America: Judgement of the Supreme Court of the United States of 6 July 2020 in case of Peter B. Chiafalo, Levi Jennet Guerra, and Esther Virginia John, Petitioners vs. Washington

Summary/Abstract: The case concerned the election of the President of the United States of America who is elected by the Electoral College. In the 2016 election, Washington’s three electors voted inconsistent with the results of the general election in the state from which they were delegated. As a result, these electors were fined $ 1,000. The Supreme Court confirmed the constitutionality of this type of solution, because there is no provision in the Constitution of the United States of America that would explicitly prohibit states from depriving presidential electors of their freedom to vote.
