Early voting; authorize at the office of the registrar and additional early voting polling places.
HB 365, titled "Early voting; authorize at the office of the registrar and additional early voting polling places," would have established a statewide early voting framework in Mississippi. It would have allowed voters to cast ballots during specified early periods at their county registrar's office (7 days before elections, 8 a.m.-12 p.m. on Saturdays) or at additional designated polling places (15 days before, Monday-Friday 8 a.m.-5 p.m. and Saturday 10 a.m.-4 p.m.). The bill required 14-day public notice in three locations (including courthouses/city halls) and outlined voter ID verification procedures for both locations. This bill died in committee on February 3, 2026, and did not become law.
