Relating to voting by a voter unable to enter a polling place.

HB 2139 amends Texas election law to require election officers to deliver ballots to voters unable to enter polling places under three specific circumstances: (1) if the voter cannot enter without personal assistance or risks health injury; (2) if the voter is a parent of a child under 12 who cannot be left unsupervised; or (3) if the voter is a primary caregiver of an unable-to-care-for-themselves person who cannot be left unsupervised. The bill ensures these voters can cast ballots at the polling place entrance or curb without having to enter the building. It takes effect September 1, 2025, and directly affects eligible voters with mobility challenges, young children, or dependent care responsibilities at polling locations. The policy change clarifies and expands existing provisions for accessible voting at physical polling sites.
