Relating to requiring a voter to be affiliated with a political party to vote in that party's primary election; creating a criminal offense.

HB 3432 would require Texas voters to declare their political party affiliation when registering to vote. It amends voter registration forms to make party affiliation a mandatory field (item 11 on the application). Providing false information about party affiliation would be treated as perjury, a criminal offense under Texas law. This change directly affects all Texas voters registering for partisan primary elections.
