Polling place; prohibit facility that sells alcoholic beverages from being used as.
HB 773 prohibits Mississippi polling places from being located in any facility that sells alcohol, such as bars or liquor stores. The bill defines "facility" as a licensed alcohol seller (excluding government buildings or nonprofit organizations) and "alcoholic beverage" as beer, wine, or liquor. It amends existing election laws to enforce this restriction across all polling locations in the state. This directly affects election officials who select polling sites and ensures voters cannot cast ballots in venues primarily selling alcohol.
