Election results; require Secretary of State to develop centralized, statewide election night reporting system.

HB 1241 requires Mississippi's Secretary of State to create a centralized system for collecting and publishing real-time election results statewide. County election officials must submit initial results within one hour after polls close, then every 30 minutes until all votes are recorded, with public access to live results via the Secretary's website. Officials submitting these reports receive $150 per election night for the extra duty. The bill excludes municipal elections and references related code sections for potential future amendments.
