House Bill 620 amends Tennessee Code Annotated, specifically Section 2-3-302(f), to introduce a new provision regarding convenience voting. The bill adds a subdivision (6) that specifies criteria for counties eligible for convenience voting based on population size. Specifically, it states that a county must have a population of not less than 64,400 and not more than 64,500, as determined by the 2020 federal census or any subsequent federal census.

This legislation aims to clarify the population parameters for counties that can implement convenience voting, thereby potentially expanding access to voting in specific areas of Tennessee. The bill is set to take effect immediately upon becoming law, emphasizing the importance of timely implementation for the public welfare.
