Mississippi HB1001 allows individuals to vote by affidavit if they registered after the 30-day cutoff but before election day.

Mississippi HB1001 amends Section 23-15-573 to allow individuals to vote by affidavit if they registered after the 30-day qualifying cutoff but before election day. This applies to those who believe they are registered, are otherwise qualified to vote, or have been illegally denied registration. The bill also details the process for casting and counting affidavit ballots, including the use of a secure system for tracking these ballots. The act takes effect from July 1, 2026.
