Bill Summary
AN ACT Amending section 16-317, Arizona Revised Statutes; relating to filing and forms.
AI Summary
This bill amends Arizona state law to expand the existing online signature collection system for nomination petitions to include candidates for justice of the peace and constable offices. Currently, qualified electors can sign nomination petitions for city, town, county, and precinct committeeman offices through a secure internet portal managed by the Secretary of State. The system ensures that only eligible voters can sign petitions for specific candidates and verifies the identity of signers. Through 2024, candidates may collect up to the minimum required number of signatures online, and starting in 2025, they can collect up to 110% of the minimum required signatures using the online system. The bill specifically adds justice of the peace and constable candidates to the list of offices that can utilize this online signature collection method, making it easier for these candidates to gather the necessary petition signatures for their election campaigns.
