SB 2639 Mississippi Senate · 2025 Regular Session

Campaign materials; provide clarity regarding distance which must maintain from an election building.

SB 2639 would have required campaign materials (like posters or flyers) to be kept at least 150 feet away from any entrance of a building used for elections. It included an exception allowing materials to be displayed on private property if the person has a lease or ownership interest there. The bill, which died in committee in February 2025, directly affected campaign workers, candidates, and organizations distributing election materials near polling locations. It aimed to clarify existing rules without changing the 150-foot distance requirement or the private property exception already in the law.
