Rep. Paul A. Cutler (R-18) · H.B. 479, Election Code Modifications · floor debate · Mar 2, 2026
Asks whether the bill addresses differences between voters checked in and ballots cast at in-person voting.
I appreciate the, uh, the efforts the sponsors made to keep, uh, vote by mail available. Uh, my question is in related to in-person voting, in the past, some, uh, some counties have had challenges where the number of voters checked in, uh, using some form of ID does not match the number of cast ballots. Is there anything in this bill that will help us improve the differences we've seen, uh, and the challenges we've seen for this in-person voting and where the number of voters checked in does not match the cast ballots?
Rep. Rosalba Dominguez (D-35) · H.B. 479, Election Code Modifications · House Public Utilities and Energy Committee · Feb 25, 2026
Asks how the bill would affect rural communities that rely on mail-in ballots.
No, thank you for that. Um, and how would this, how, if we were to pass this bill, how would this affect our rural, um, communities? Because we already have, we've already seen how it's affected and, and, and really how successful we've had voter turnout from rural communities, um, by mail-in ballots. And, and how would that affect us?
