3*39999Sbostic# From Arthur David Olson (January 18, 1989):
4*39999Sbostic# On November 10, 1987, the U. S. House of Representatives passed a bill
5*39999Sbostic# (H.R. 435), the "Uniform Poll Closing Time Act", establishing
6*39999Sbostic# "Pacific Presidential Election Time"; it was not acted on by the Senate
7*39999Sbostic# before the end of the 100th Congress and so died.
8*39999Sbostic# The bill has been reintroduced in the 101st Congress as H. R. 18;
9*39999Sbostic# H. R. 96 also deals with poll closing time.  Either bill would have to be
10*39999Sbostic# passed by both the House and Senate and signed by the President (or have
11*39999Sbostic# the President's veto overridden by the House and Senate) before becoming law.
