HB 209 mandates separating federal elections from state and local elections in Texas, requiring separate ballots and procedures for each. Federal elections would include races for federal offices and would exclude any propositions or state and local races. Additionally, the bill calls for concurrent use of precincts and polling locations where feasible, with the Texas Secretary of State directed to adopt rules minimizing voter disruption and confusion from this separation.
