The bill would amend the Election Code requiring county election precincts to be used for any election of a political subdivision that is held on the November uniform election date, but would exempt a district created under Section 52, Article III, or Section 59, Article XVI of the Texas Constitution related to a Municipal Utility District (MUD) that is located in or adjacent to a county with a population of more than 3.3 million. Based on the applicability criteria of this section, it would exempt Harris County Municipal Utility Districts.
