Creates a new state holiday for election day and requires colleges and universities to close unless used as a polling place

HB 3403 designates the first Tuesday after the first Monday in November of even-numbered years (Election Day) as a new state public holiday. This affects state employees, who will receive the day off, and all colleges and universities in the state. The bill requires these institutions to close on Election Day unless they are being used as official polling places for elections. The change adds this date to the existing list of state holidays, aligning with standard Election Day observance.
