Relating to accommodating a voter unable to enter a polling place.
SB 110 (Relating to accommodating a voter unable to enter a polling place) requires that any person assisting a voter who cannot enter a polling place must exit their vehicle and remain outside it, unless the voter specifically selects them under existing election rules. The bill directly affects voters with mobility challenges who need in-person assistance at polling locations and the individuals who accompany them. It amends Texas Election Code Section 64.009 to clarify that accompaniers cannot remain inside vehicles during the voting process. The law takes effect September 1, 2025. This is a procedural change to voting assistance protocols, not a new benefit or funding measure.
