Texas SB2820 amends the Election Code to regulate the number of polling places in certain counties.

Texas SB2820 amends the Election Code to ensure that each county commissioners precinct contains at least one countywide polling place. It mandates that the total number of polling places in a county commissioners precinct does not exceed twice the number in another precinct. In counties with a population over 1 million, the number of polling places within state representative districts cannot differ by more than one. The bill also requires commissioners courts in counties with specific populations to establish additional early voting polling places. The changes take effect September 1, 2025.
