Election Laws - As introduced, requires the legislative body of each municipality to change the date of municipal elections to coincide with the August primary or November general election; makes municipal elections partisan; standardizes the election timetable for referendums for the incorporation of a new municipality. - Amends TCA Title 2; Title 5; Title 6 and Title 7.

SB 1630 requires all Tennessee municipalities to hold local elections on the same day as either the August primary or November general election, aligning them with state election cycles. It makes municipal elections partisan (candidates run under party labels), standardizes voting schedules for new city incorporation referendums, and mandates that new cities hold their first election at the next regular state election. The bill also limits term extensions for current officials to two years when changing election dates and specifies primary election timing for municipal races. This directly affects every city and town in Tennessee that holds local elections.
