Bill Summary
AN ACT amending section 16-828, Arizona Revised Statutes; relating to political parties.
AI Summary
This bill amends Arizona law regarding proxies, which are written authorizations for one person to act on behalf of another, specifically for precinct committeemen, who are elected officials within political parties responsible for local party organization. The key change allows a precinct committeeman in a precinct with only two or fewer committeemen to appoint a qualified elector from a neighboring precinct to vote by proxy on their behalf at a county committee meeting, expanding the options for representation when a committeeman cannot attend. This provision is in addition to existing rules that generally require proxies to be given to someone residing in the same county or precinct, depending on the committee level.
