HB 1073 modifies Tennessee's election law by extending the deadline for holding special elections from 10 to 15 days after receiving an order. This change directly affects election administrators and officials responsible for scheduling special elections. The bill amends Tennessee Code Annotated, Section 2-14-105, to adjust this timeline without altering campaign finance rules or other substantive election procedures. It became effective on May 2, 2025, following gubernatorial approval. The policy change is procedural, focusing solely on administrative timing for special elections.
