Default 1986 YF Carter

I have a 1986 F150 300 with a single barrel YF Carter carb. The electronic choke seems to only have one ground wire connection to it, does it not need a ground?

Here is the choke and wire I'm talking about: https://www.ebay.com/itm/27412858998...1&gad_source=1

It grounds through the carb body
There is a metal tab on the side of the choke cap that grounds it with the 3 screw (rivets) retainer
