Constitution; amend to require early voting 10 days before every election.

This bill proposes a constitutional amendment to require a 10-day early voting period before all Mississippi elections (including primaries, general elections, runoffs, and municipal elections), ending at 5:00 p.M. on the Saturday before election day. It would directly affect all qualified Mississippi voters by expanding access to vote early at county election offices, with specific requirements for location availability based on population (e.g., one additional location per 30,000 county voters). Key provisions include mandatory photo ID verification, simultaneous counting of early votes with election day votes, and public notice of voting hours. The amendment, which died in committee in February 2025, would have required voter ID and mandated specific early voting hours and locations statewide.
