Relating to the notice required for an election held by certain political subdivisions.
HB 5372 requires certain political subdivisions (like cities or school districts, excluding counties) to post election notices on their official websites by the 62nd day before election day. It amends Texas Election Code sections to clarify notice requirements for nonpartisan elections and adjusts the deadline for delivering election notices to county clerks from 75 to 60 days before election day. The bill directly affects local governments holding elections, ensuring earlier public access to election details online. This applies only to elections ordered on or after September 1, 2025.
