Electronic pollbooks; allow to include list of inactive voters when affidavit ballots are available.
SB 2640 would allow Mississippi counties to include inactive voters (those who haven’t voted recently or moved) in electronic pollbooks, provided affidavit ballots are available at the voting precinct. This change directly affects voters in inactive status who would otherwise need to use affidavit ballots to cast a vote. The bill requires that voting locations maintain affidavit ballots for these voters to cast a ballot, following existing procedures under Section 23-15-573. The bill died in committee on February 4, 2025, and has not become law.
