Prohibits early voting on federal holidays
This bill prohibits early voting on federal holidays for general, primary, run-off primary, and special elections (excluding certain party elections). If a federal holiday falls within the early voting period, voting is banned that day, and the total early voting window is extended by one additional day. The law applies to all eligible voters in covered elections across the state. It ensures voters affected by holiday closures still have the same total number of early voting days, without requiring additional voter registration or changing election dates. The bill modifies existing election law to adjust early voting schedules when federal holidays occur.
