Redistricting, Legislative - As introduced, requires the comptroller of the treasury to report to the general assembly which counties, if any, redrew precinct lines to ensure no split precincts in legislative districts. - Amends TCA Section 2-16-103; Section 3-1-102 and Section 3-1-103.
SB 691 requires Tennessee's comptroller of the treasury to report to the state legislature which counties adjusted voting precinct boundaries to prevent precincts from being split across multiple legislative districts. This bill amends three sections of Tennessee law (2-16-103, 3-1-102, and 3-1-103) to establish this reporting requirement. It directly affects counties that redraw precinct lines under redistricting rules, ensuring transparency about how local election boundaries align with legislative districts. The bill does not change district maps or voting rules but mandates a formal report on precinct boundary adjustments. This is a procedural measure focused on administrative transparency in redistricting compliance.
