Bill > HB2720

This bill makes several changes to Arizona's election laws: 1. It requires the county recorder or officer in charge of elections to maintain detailed counts of the number of physical and electronic ballots printed and generated for each election, and to post this information on the county's website within one day after election day. 2. It modifies the processes for the mandatory hand count audits of election results, including expanding the pool of precincts that can be selected and the number of races that must be audited. It also creates a vote count verification committee to establish the "designated margins" used in evaluating the hand count results. 3. It grants the state legislature the authority to revoke the secretary of state's issuance or certification of presidential elector certificates of election, even after the results have been declared. 4. It allows for jury trials in election contests and places restrictions on dismissing such contests before the jury has issued a verdict. 5. It requires the county recorder or officer in charge of elections to provide live video coverage of the ballot counting process at the central counting center, and imposes penalties if the video feed is disrupted. 6. It makes various other changes to the laws governing election contests, recounts, and the inspection of ballots and election equipment.
