Relating to appointment of the members of the early voting ballot board.
HB 3444 sets new deadlines for appointing members of early voting ballot boards in Texas counties. County chairs must submit lists of eligible candidates by June 30 (for counties over 500,000 population) or July 31 (for smaller counties), and county election boards must make appointments by August 15 each year. The bill affects county election officials responsible for organizing early voting locations. It takes effect September 1, 2025, and is procedural, focusing on timing rather than changing voting rules.
