HB 303 Texas House · 89th Legislature, 1st Called Session (2025)

Relating to the administration of elections.

HB 303 amends Texas election law to extend deadlines for election-related tasks when the deadline falls on a weekend, holiday, or due to unforeseen events beyond control (like natural disasters). It specifies that for statewide or multi-county elections, the secretary of state determines if an event qualifies as such, while county judges make that determination for single-county elections. The bill also clarifies that in-person election filings are accepted if the person or document entered the office before the deadline time. These changes aim to provide flexibility for election administration during unexpected disruptions.
