HB 909 Mississippi House · 2026 Regular Session

County and municipal executive agreements; revise circuit/municipal clerk or county/municipal election commission to enter.

This Mississippi bill allows county and municipal executive committees to enter into written agreements with circuit clerks or election commissions, permitting those officials to perform the executive committee's election duties. The agreement becomes mandatory if the executive committee chooses to delegate all responsibilities, provided the committee meets specific voter support thresholds based on recent gubernatorial election results. The bill also clarifies poll manager training requirements, allowing local officials to delegate training duties to clerks or commissions while maintaining standards for poll manager certification and compensation.
